Civilians eyeing a job with the Air Force now have a new resource that streamlines the online federal job application process. USA Staffing is an Internet-based recruitment tool connected to USAJOBS, the federal government’s employment website. USA Staffing keeps basic data such as the applicant’s name and contact information, and automatically enters it in subsequent applications. The integration of USA Staffing and USAJOBS “makes it even easier to find that perfect Air Force job,” said John Steenbock, deputy director for civilian force integration. He added that it “helps ensure we match the right people to the right jobs.”
A legislative standoff has led to a lapse in a $4.26 billion small business innovation contracting program widely used by the Air Force and could spell the end of it entirely, industry sources warned Air & Space Forces Magazine.
