Federal employment on base is limited. Military spouses presently
employed with a federal agency may be eligible for the Military Spouse
Preference Program. If they are Department of Defense employees they should
visit their local Civilian Personnel Office before relocating and register as a
military spouse. This program provides priority placement in the employment
selection process for military spouses who are relocating as a result of their
military spouse's PCS.
All Luke AFB civil service positions for all
grades are recruited through the Air Force Personnel Center at Randolph AFB,
Texas. The resume submitted to AFPC by the job-seeker should be as comprehensive
as possible, as qualified candidates for jobs are identified by a computer
search for skills needed for positions as they become available. After your
resume is accepted you are required to self-nominate for positions. Your name
will be referred for vacancies for which you qualify, based on the work
experience given in your resume. Resumes are submitted either on-line using
Resume Writer or may be attached to an email. Assistance in writing a resume may
be attained at your local Family Support Center. Information about how to submit
a resume, a Job Kit that includes instructions, and answers to frequently asked
questions can be found at Air Force Personnel Center's
website.
Applications/resumes submitted via FAX will not be considered or
returned. Applications/resumes must be submitted at the applicant's expense, not
via government equipment. On base employment that is not civil service can be
explored through the contacts listed below. Job announcements regarding
employment opportunities near the base are frequently posted in the Jobs
Resource Center at the Family Support Center.
Federal employment may be
available in the local area through agencies other than Department of Defense.
The Family Support Center can provide job seekers with a list of those agencies
upon request. Federal job opportunities can also be explored at the USAJOBS
Internet site listed in "Contacts/Links."
If you are interested in
employment under the Air Reserve Technician (ART) program at Luke AFB, an
application package may be picked at the Civilian Personnel office.
