According to Director James, "The President has issued a call to service, and we are looking for those who are willing to serve their country through initiatives such as USAJOBS.opm.gov and nationwide recruitment fairs. OPM is working hard to recruit new talent so Federal agencies can fulfill their requirements to quickly hire the right people with the right skills." Director James is committed to making sure that the President's vision becomes a reality.

The recruitment fairs will highlight the Federal Government's many career opportunities and the varied fields of interest available to applicants. In addition, the fairs will showcase the U.S. government as an employer of first choice and an equal opportunity employer.
