Not sure your industry, but there’s a much clearer pipeline from corporate intern to offers than government from my experience. I spent a lot of my time early career in government and I ended up wishing I hadn’t because it took so long to hear back on anything and the pay sucked. But I had equivalent jobs available to me outside of the government. If you do as well recommend trying to get another internship in the private sector - I know my company requires us to have a job open you can offer to a successful intern before you can get assigned an intern and we get judged on our conversion metrics.
Or govt contractor

Where do you live / what kind of gov’t work is around you?
I know quite a few contracting companies, but outside of some of the big ones, I’d need to know where you are trying to work. I am in the DC/NoVa area. There are TONS of contracting companies here. From the larger ones like CACI, CGI Federal, Raytheon, Booz Allen, Deloitte, etc to literally thousands of mid/small size companies.
As far as a good “job board”, I dont really know of one other than fedbizops which I think is sam.gov now. Search for contracts that have been recently awarded near you related to IT and you’ll see which companies won. Those contractors are usually HURTING to bring on people ASAP. They’d probably hire on the spot if you can pass a background check.
Thanks for the tips! I’ll most definitely look newly awarded federal contracts then look for opportunities there.
