The first step to becoming a Foreign Service Officer is taking the Foreign Service Written Exam, which is offered once a year in the spring. The exam will measure your knowledge of subjects determined to be necessary for performing the tasks required of a Foreign Service Officer. There will be multiple-choice questions on a range of topics from U.S. Government to psychology to American culture to management and finance. The exam includes an English usage section, a biographic inventory, and an essay exercise. To be eligible, exam takers must be US citizens between the ages of 20 and 59, and be available for worldwide assignment. You can select your testing location from among hundreds of test sites around the world.
