[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]of course it is not the main motivation. Curious why everyone talks about AO is a way to launch the career in the government[/quote]

I wrote the response and I mentioned telework as the main motivation because of how the OP phrased the question.  Personally, I think it is a great way to launch a career in government because USCIS is desperate for Asylum Officers (AO) right now so it is a good way to get a job right off the bat with no previous experience!

If that person later wants to transition to another job, they will have had a lot of training and opportunity to work directly with people- it would be a great transition to anything having to do with intelligence, investigations, conflict mediation and resolution, law, immigration, and international affairs (because you will develop a lot of knowledge about country conditions), foreign policy, immigration policy, and homeland security, and there would be opportunities to transition to multiple DHS components (DHS, ICE, CBP, FEMA, etc).

In addition, it's important and hard work that carries a lot of responsibility, so it is great experience and would reflect well on a resume.  An AO has to work hard, work interdependently, be very organized, and be very dedicated.
