Join the Fort Union National Monument Team

Fort Union is more than a place. It is a team of people working together every day to protect the park and serve its visitors. Our team is made up of federal employees, partners, volunteers, interns and more.

As a unit of the United States government, all announcements for federal jobs are posted on USAJobs. Positions are posted there throughout the year for our different work areas including maintainence, preservation, administration and interpreting park resources and meanings for visitors.

Remember, the federal government rates candidates differently than private sector employers. In the private sector, the interview is key. In the federal sector, the application is key. The better your written application, the greater your chances are for a higher rating.

You must be a United States citizen to be eligible for consideration for federal employment and at least 18 years of age.

 

Your Federal Application

If you are pursuing a federal government position, the best source of information is the job announcement. It will explain what the job duties are, what experience and / or education is necessary to qualify, the pay, and how to submit your application.

For more help with your application, visit USAJOBS, the Federal Government's one-stop source for Federal jobs and employment information.
