What can she do with her masters degree in International Law/Relations?
Monday, November 26th, 2007turtle78jgw asked:
My friend is brilliant and incredibly hard-working. She has her masters in International Law/Relations and her bachelors in Criminal Justice but thanks to an old injury can’t become a govern. agent. She is now contracting with the DOJ in an international arena for 5 years and they love her but can’t seem to put her into a govern. job thanks to veteran’s preference and govern. policies. So she is getting passed over for every promotion and big raise that her government counterparts are getting. She is feeling like the only way to advance her career is to get her law degree but I don’t think it’s her passion and would be a huge waste of time and money. But her frustration is that she doesn’t know what else she can do with her degree. Anyone with any ideas or a direction to point her in? She loves international policy/law, politics, criminal justice, has years of experience and has a very keen mind.
