Federal Communications Commission

10 remote or telework-eligible positions · federal agency

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is the independent agency that regulates interstate and international communications by radio, television, wire, satellite and cable: licensing broadcasters, managing and auctioning spectrum, setting rules for telephone and broadband providers, enforcing those rules and reviewing media and telecom transactions. It is led by five commissioners appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, with headquarters in Washington, D.C., and most of its staff are attorneys, engineers, economists and analysts in its bureaus and offices.

Recent listings have included attorney advisors, an appellate trial attorney, an honors attorney entering as a law clerk, a paralegal specialist, an electronics engineer and an auctions operations and outreach specialist.

Applying tip: FCC attorney positions are in the excepted service and require a J.D. and active bar membership, and the honors attorney program recruits graduating students and recent graduates on a yearly cycle, so watch for its announcement window. Engineering roles value radio-frequency and spectrum experience. The legal jobs guide explains how federal attorney hiring works.
