Barack Obama is my boss. How would you like to be able to technically say that? If you're serious about wanting a job under the Obama administration, now is the time to apply. Typically, about 7,000 new jobs open up at the beginning of a new president's term, and on Wednesday the government will announce which positions will be available [1] and where they will be located.

The jobs last as long as Obama is in office and are referred to as politically appointed or noncareer positions (political experience is not a prerequisite). The positions cover a variety of fields offered at a wide range of salaries and experience levels. Fill out a general application online [2] now to receive instructions later about how to apply for the positions that interest you most. A comprehensive list of all jobs will be available after they've been announced at gpoaccess.gov [3].
