"As one of the biggest employers in the nation, the federal government is always hiring. This means it’s always a good time to look for a federal job,” said Derrick Dortch, President of the Diversa Group, a consulting company specializing in career, entrepreneurship, leadership and organizational consulting, development & training. “Thousands of federal workers will retire by 2014. Combined with regular hiring needs of the government, thousands of federal jobs will be available for job seekers interested in government service."

In addition to his work at The Diversa Group, Dortch also hosts a monthly online career program for The Washington Post and is a regular weekly host for Fed Access with Derrick T. Dortch on Federal News Radio 1500 A.M.
For the recent college graduate, How to Find a Job in Washington, DC includes essential lessons such as how to build a Washington network, popular online websites to look for positions, and how to make a lasting impression in the interview process, both over the phone and in person. Also, Dortch discusses the realities of the job search and interview process.
