![]() NPS Photo. Join The TeamThe National Park Service (NPS) seeks students, professionals, and qualified individuals from diverse backgrounds for various internships, seasonal roles, and permanent positions nationwide. We encourage all interested and eligible applicants to apply. Our goal is to build a workforce that reflects the diversity of America. To be considered for employment, applicants must be U.S. citizens. Certain jobs may have specific age and physical qualifications, and applicants must generally be at least 18 years old. The NPS follows U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) regulations for filling positions. Typically, an initial appointment to a permanent position requires eligibility on an appropriate OPM register. How Jobs Are FilledFederal agencies fill jobs in several ways. Not all positions are open to external applicants. Agencies may promote current employees, hire those transferring from another agency, reinstate former federal employees, or request names from an OPM register.
Your ApplicationIf you're applying for your first federal government position, start by reading the job announcement. It provides details on job duties, necessary qualifications, pay, and application instructions. For additional help with your application, visit USAJOBS, the government's one-stop source for federal jobs and employment information, or call 1-478-757-3000 or TDD 1-478-744-2299. |
