The United States Attorney's Office for the Western District of Wisconsin is looking for a highly qualified attorney to fill a full-time position as an Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) in its Criminal Division.
The AUSA hired for this position will prosecute a broad array of federal crimes. While AUSAs typically develop an area of expertise and practice with an emphasis in that area, new AUSAs are expected to prosecute all federal crimes including offenses involving immigration, drugs, firearms, child exploitation, computer crimes, human trafficking, and white-collar crimes (e.g., tax crimes and bank and investment fraud). AUSAs write their own District and Appellate Court briefs. Therefore, strong writing skills are required.
We may use this vacancy to fill other vacant AUSA positions.
Security Requirements: Initial appointment is conditioned upon a satisfactory pre-employment adjudication. This includes fingerprint, credit and tax checks, and drug testing. In addition, continued employment is subject to a favorable adjudication of a background investigation.
