273,000 new government jobs coming within three years
The agency posting the largest increase in the number of available "mission critical jobs" is the Department of Veteran Affairs, which is expected to hire more than 48,000 new workers by 2012.
Most of the new hires -- 55,000 -- will be from the public health field. In fact, more than half of the VA's hiring will come from the medical profession: The agency's hospitals will need 25,000 nurses and 8,500 doctors nationwide.
"The biggest draw comes from the fact that we're fighting two wars," said Max Stier, president of the Partnership for Public Service. "There are a lot of returning service men and women who need medical professionals to take care of them."
