The needs of our Veteran population never stop, nor does our promise to care for them, which is why VA has made a commitment to hiring more than 52,000 employees by the end of fiscal year 2023.
For you, that means there’s never been a better time to join VA. With more positions available in clinical care and various support jobs, there’s a place for everyone to find a job that matches their skills and abilities.
Part of our commitment to this increased hiring is an ongoing effort to improve our hiring processes, which means we’re committed to getting you on board — and getting you to work — faster than ever before.
That’ll get you access to the employment benefits that come with a VA career even faster, too. Generous compensation packages, extensive paid time off, quality health care options and federal retirement plans are just the tip of the iceberg.
We’re also investing in recruitment and retention bonuses, and a broader array of student loan reimbursement options to make a career at VA even more appealing.
