With this understanding of the public sector and the range of organizations that comprise it, you are now in a position to think about the kinds of public organizations you might be interested in. In the first activity designed to help you figure out if the public sector may be right for you, make a list of three areas of activity that the public sector engages in that you find interesting. For example, these might be growing concerns over food deserts, particularly in urban areas, or local government efforts to promote sustainability, or programs to provide young people with after-school support. Then, do some Internet searching and find a few specific organizations near you that engage in these kinds of activities. Have a look at these organizations’ websites and get a sense of their size, their mission, and their efforts. You may very well be surprised about the scope of these organizations’ work!
