SSA’s Hiring Plans for 2009:
Linking Candidates with Disabilities to SSA Jobs
The Social Security Administration has recently received funding to hire a significant number of employees throughout the country. This hiring initiative offers a unique opportunity for individuals with disabilities who may want to get a job with SSA. These jobs will be at various skill levels including a number of entry-level positions.
What kinds of jobs is SSA offering?
SSA is recruiting employees to work in field offices and teleservice centers where they will assist the public by phone and in person with a wide variety of program related activities such as filing claims, applying for a new or replacement Social Security cards and other types of inquiries. SSA also is recruiting employees to work in claims processing centers and to work in hearings offices in legal and paralegal positions.
Where are these jobs located?
All across the United States; for example, some are in the local SSA field offices or SSA hearings offices, some in the 37 teleservice centers nationwide, some in SSA’s program service centers and some at SSA headquarters in the Baltimore area.
How will SSA recruit?
Contact SSA for More Information:
If you have specific questions about this initiative or want to submit an application or resume for consideration, please send those to our special e-mail address, Selective.Placement.Applications@ssa.gov. Please include QUESTION in the subject line for all questions and use RESUME for all submissions of resumes.
As SSA is a small portion of a broader Federal Government hiring initiative, Employment Networks, Vocational Rehabilitation Agencies, and other employment service providers are key partners in bringing talented and available candidates to SSA and all agencies. Thank you for getting involved and helping SSA reach its goal to increase diversity and opportunities for employment of people with disabilities at SSA locations across the nation.
