What they like about United States Peace Corps:

Working for a company with an emphasis on social values and helping society is a clear and important priority for you - a critical factor in who you choose to work for. In contrast to other factors, you place an organization's reputation for fairness and concern for the community above most other aspects of the company. As you search for a new job opportunity, it is usually possible to find out if the company is involved in the community and/or if it is addressing problems and issues in society. Pay special attention to non-profit organizations and those specifically involved in social action. Moreover, speaking with current and former employees should enlighten you to perceptions of the fairness of the company's leaders and the treatment of employees.

Climbers who worked at United States Peace Corps had these interests:

Books
DESTINY OF THE REPUBLIC Excellent accounting of how James Garfield became president. I would recommend book highly!
PRESIDENTIAL ANECDOTES As the title denotes it is about presidential anecdotes all of which in reading some seem surprising while others not so much. The book gives you a bit of what the personalities were like behind sitting presidents.
THE LOST CITY OF Z The author David Grann writes about Percy Fawcett who was in that period of time an explorer looking for mythical city in the Amazon called Z or the Lost City of Z.
