Looking For A Job With The Federal Government

Looking For A Job With The Federal Government

By:


You may hear about the downsizing of the government in the news every day, but did you
know that the Federal government hires 432,000 new employees every year? In fact,
counting the Postal Service, the federal branch of the government has approximately
2,868,588 loyal workers. The benefits are great, and the average full time salary
(excluding postal workers) is $42,610. Not a bad day at the office. These jobs are not just
located in Washington, DC, but throughout the U.S. and the world. This could be great
way to see the country or live overseas while supporting yourself with a stable government
job. Jobs in every profession are represented in the Federal government. There is even a
listing later in the chapter of jobs by occupation available and the kind of college majors
that may fit the bill. Roughly a third of all government employees have college degrees.

The government has made your task of finding employment a little easier. They have done
away with the cumbersome Form SF-171. Now you can send your resume directly to
many agencies. You can perform your personal job search by using your telephone, your
personal computer, or by visiting a touch screen computer kiosk located in various
locations nationwide (a listing is provided on page 675). In addition, there are several
automated systems available on the Federal Employment Information Superhighway
which are noted below.

The Office of Personnel Managements (OPM) Career America Connection at 912-757-
3000 and TDD Service at 912-744-2299 is a telephone-based system that provides
current worldwide federal job opportunities, salaries, employee benefits information,
special recruitment messages, and much more. You can also record your request to have
application packages, forms, and other related information sent to you. This service is
available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. There are also local telephone numbers for this
nationwide network listed below.

Keep in mind that your state government also hires workers. We have included addresses
and e-mail addresses (where available) to help you on your search.
