Study Guide for The Foreign Service Generalist Oral Assessment

By U.S. Department of State

The Foreign Service is a unique career and, perhaps unsurprisingly, the selection process is also unique. The purpose of the "Guide to the Foreign Service Oral Assessment" is to help familiarize candidates with the assessment process so that they will be able to better focus on their own performance during the oral assessment rather than spend their limited time reviewing procedures. While the main elements of the FSOA remain constant, information on smaller details - for example, time limits or speaking order - can change without warning. Candidates should stay alert and follow the instructions provided on the day of the Oral Assessment. This guide includes the criteria used to evaluate candidates, common sense strategies candidates might use to ensure they are performing their best, a description of the activities during the day-long FSOA, sample Group Exercise materials, sample Case Management materials, as well as information on required clearances (in case the candidate passes the FSOA)...
