Greetings from Careers NOW Program

State CapitolRecognizing the need to provide an education related work experience in State of Tennessee Government to students, the three Constitutional Officers created the Careers NOW Program to allow junior, senior and graduate students who attend college in Tennessee and Tennessee residents who attend out-of-state colleges an opportunity to work in the Department of Treasury, Department of State, and the Comptroller of the Treasury department. The Careers NOW Program broadens students' awareness of the roles these Constitutional offices have in the governing process and of the careers in these offices and other agencies.
