Best Bets Among the Feds T
he federal government employs approximately two million people, making it easily the largest employer in the country. Especially in today’s economy, the benefits, pay scale, emphasis on work/life balance and security of a government position can be particularly alluring. A recent survey conducted by the Office of Personnel Management also finds federal workers highly satisfied with their jobs; contributing to the country can be a rewarding choice.
Two major factors in today’s current climate make it an especially favorable time to pursue a government job. More than half a million federal employees are poised to retire by 2016, creating openings at agencies across the board. And the Obama administration has begun replacing many contractors with government workers, adding to the number of federal job openings. Of course, it is not all growing budgets and welcome mats for new employees. Where some departments have the green light for hiring, other government areas are forced to slowdownor cut back. Job seekers may find competition is fierce for positions in occupations with fewer retirements or for popular jobs with many applicants. Knowing which agencies are hiring the most can make a big difference in your search.
Medical and Public Health As baby boomers continue to age, wars continue in the Middle East and technology enables more health issues to be treated, the medical and public health arena needs the mostmanpower.TheDepartmentofVeterans Affairs (VA) has the greatest number of job openings in the federal government, not only for physicians and nurses, but for medical technicians, IT specialists, administrative and human resources professionals as well. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and its sub-agency, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), also have an increasing

a large number of people for the Foreign Service overseas and for Civil Service here in the District. Two things to keep in mind as you are looking: Whether or not predictions for a slowdown in hiring after 2012 prove to be accurate, hiring freezes and drastic budget cuts can happen any time, so do not procrastinate. (This sentiment also applies when taking into account that the average applicant spends five months securing a position.) And when weighing your options among the agencies that are hiring the most, do not rule one out simply because at first glance it does not seem to fit your field of expertise. Each agency offers a broad spectrum of jobs – a historian, for example, may find an opportunity at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as well as the biologists and chemists you would expect.
