How to Apply 

Eligibility Requirements
Specific education and skill requirements can be reviewed in each Assignment Opportunity Notice, however all applicants are required to meet the following conditions of employment:

  • Must be 18 years of age
  • Must be a U.S. citizen
  • Must be able to obtain a Top Secret with access to Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) security clearance
  • Must successfully complete any required pre-employment tests when applicable (i.e. vision testing, medical screen, illegal drug use screen)

Application Instructions
To apply for a job with National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, you must submit your application online through the eRecruit application system, which is accessible via this website. If you are interested in multiple job opening announcements, you must apply to each announcement for which you want to be considered. For more information, including step-by-step instructions for navigating through the application process, click here.

Intentional misrepresentations in application documents raise serious doubts about the applicant’s honesty and fitness for employment and can be sufficient to establish that the applicant is unsuitable for federal employment.

Checking Your Application Status
You can check the status of your application by logging back into the eRecruit application system using the user name and password that you created during the registration process.

  • Due to the large volume of applications we receive, individual feedback is not provided.
  • A number of factors can influence when your application status is updated. Some of these include when the announcement closes, the number of applications received for the particular announcement, the number of interviews conducted and scheduling. Although it is our goal to update application status as soon as possible, hiring managers can take up to 120 days to make final selections.

If you are selected for an interview, you will be contacted by NGA. It is important that you provide current contact information in your application.
