Employment

For almost a century, since 1905, USDA Forest Service employees have been on the front line of conservation, intelligent resource utilization, and wildland management. Today, there is more excitement, greater challenge, and more career variety than ever before available to people who join the Nation's premier forest management agency. Managing 51 thousand square miles of the most magnificent lands in our nation is a great responsibility. Managing it in ways that are most effective for the land, water, air, wildlife, and people of America is our mission.

The USDA Forest Service is constantly moving forward. Our fundamental responsibility is still sound and scientific focus on stewardship and sustainability of the land, water and communities, but how that is delivered to the public is changing. Exciting advances in science and technology, communications, national and global priorities, and public expectations are opening new vistas for Forest Service employees.

OUTREACH NOTICES

Before advertising our vacant jobs, we determine the potential applicant pool for positions through outreach notices. This effort also helps us to establish an appropriate recruitment method and area of consideration for the vacancy announcement (e.g., at the target grade only or multi-grade and Service-wide, USDA-wide, Government-wide, and/or DEMO). Another consideration is which specific professional series to use for recruitment purposes. Responses received from this outreach notice will be relied upon to make these determinations.
