Alaska Region

Permanent Employment

All permanent Forest Service jobs (along with other federal jobs) are advertised through the Office of Personnel Management's USAJOBS website. You can search the openings by agency, by location, by salary range or by "series", a system for identifying the type of work. Many positions are only open to current Federal Employees; if you say no to the question on the search form about whether or not you are a current employee, only the jobs open to everyone will be shown in the search results.

Temporary Employment

Every year, the Forest Service hires thousands of temporary (mostly summer) employees for a variety of jobs, most of them in the field. Most positions are advertised on the USAJOBS website in the late winter or spring.

Volunteering

Volunteers have become a very important part of the Forest Service workforce, helping out each year with everything from office work to trail maintenance. If you are interested in being a volunteer for the Forest Service in Alaska please contact:
