Government Job Searches

Finding a job with the government is a more involved process than finding

one at a small business or corporation. While some federal agencies have the

authority to test and hire applicants directly, most work through the Office

of Personnel Management (OPM), which accepts applications, administers

the appropriate written tests, and then submits an eligibility list of qualified

candidates to the agency for consideration. For example, if you want a job

with The Department of Agriculture, you will have to wait until you see a

specific vacancy announcement posted through the OPM, then go through

the office to start the application process.

There are several ways to get information from the OPM, with the easi￾est being through their website at www.opm.gov. On this site, you can read

answers to frequently asked questions, read about changes that are affecting

government employees, read and download or print some of the forms you

may need, and get some background information about the OPM. You can

also contact them at 202-606-1800.

The OPM also operates www.usajobs.opm.gov, which lists employment

opportunities, including the full text of the job announcement. The

announcement will give you the classification of the job, known as a “grade.”
