One of NIA's most valuable assets is its dedicated and knowledgeable staff. If you’ve been thinking about making the transition to a federal career, NIA is hiring for multiple opportunities, and we’re excited to announce new ways you can find current job openings. In a related blog post last year, NIA covered resume and application tips . Today, I’m highlighting a few tips on the types of positions available at NIA, specific job titles, and how to stay in the loop for the latest opportunities.
Finding the right role for you
Achieving NIA’s mission is only possible when a variety of perspectives and talents are at the table. We are committed to recruiting a workforce that is representative of all ethnic, racial, and cultural backgrounds . NIA is hiring for scientific roles as well as a variety of other positions to support the institute’s work in areas such as policy, communication, contracting, and more.
If you’re looking for a program officer role in NIA’s extramural divisions, one helpful tip to remember is that job titles may vary. They might range from program officer or scientific review officer to health specialist, health scientist administrator, or health program specialist. Explore the Careers at NIA webpage to get a better sense of the types of titles and careers available.
Stay on top of opportunities at NIA
Note that our Careers at NIA webpage was recently refreshed to provide key information at a glance, including the job type, scientific area or specialty, and salary information. In addition, visitors can now browse career opportunities by a particular NIA office or division. Each individual job announcement provides details on the office or division, the specific role and responsibilities, and how to apply.
Another great way to keep informed is to follow NIA’s LinkedIn page . When an opportunity is added to the NIA website, we also post it on LinkedIn. On our LinkedIn page, you can dive deeper into current openings by clicking on the “Jobs” tab. In addition, you can find posts featuring stories about what it’s like to work at NIA .
You can also search for careers with us on USAJOBS — the federal government’s job search and hiring website — and keep an eye out for current or upcoming NIH-wide hiring announcements for positions including student trainees, program officers, and grant management specialists.
