Every year the US Stae Department gives tests, usually around November I think. Then when you pass you will be assigned a post. If it is a Foreign post you will, if not already, go to Washington to learn the language of that country. You will be assigned to that country for 3 years and then transferred to another. Very interesting job. Your education background is important for hiring. good luck

You can go to the web site of the particular embassy you are interested in and generally they have job postings. The postings list the various jobs offered and the qualifications needed.
