Yes, though many positions in this field are on-site or hybrid due to the sensitive nature of government records.

Are these new grad government information specialist jobs?
Yes, many of these roles are new grad and junior positions that welcome recent graduates with little to no professional experience. A new grad-friendly posting typically accepts zero to two years of experience, counts internships or academic projects toward qualifications, and may substitute a strong writing portfolio or relevant coursework for direct work history. Look for language like 'entry level,' 'junior,' or 'no experience required' in the job description.
