These offices (i.e., Members of Congress, Committees, House Officers, and the Inspector General) carry out responsibilities ranging from representational duties on behalf of congressional districts, legislative activity, oversight of federal agencies, and the administration and operation of the processes and functions of the House. Currently, the total workforce is approximately 10,000 employees. While over half of the employees work in Washington, D.C., there are House employees working for Members in every state, Guam, American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, and the District of Columbia.</p><p>Employing offices within the House are equal opportunity employers. As individual employing offices, Members of Congress and Committees create their own organizational structure, develop job descriptions, and set work schedules and compensation.</p><p>Selection and continued employment may be contingent upon an applicant satisfactorily completing a background check (including a criminal history records review). Some employing offices may also test for illegal drug use.</p><hr><h2><strong>House Vacancy Announcement and Placement Service</strong></h2><p>The House Vacancy Announcement and Placement Service ("HVAPS") is a nonpartisan program administered by the House鈥檚 Office of the Chief Administrative Officer.  HVAPS consists of two separate offerings (1) the House Resume Bank and (2) the House Employment Bulletin.</p><h3><strong>House Resume Bank</strong></h3><p>The House Resume Bank is a service designed for individuals interested in working with the House offices and committees. It contains general postings for 14 different job titles.   </p><p>Interested job seekers are encouraged to submit resumes for any position of interest listed in the <a href="/employment/positions-with-members-and-committees/house-resume-bank" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="6271ebf7-a673-4e39-8a25-44db90431992" data-entity-substitution="canonical">House Resume Bank</a>. Resumes will be provided to House offices and committees upon request.</p><p>Each House office is an independent employer and is responsible for candidate screening, interviewing and selection, as well as job requirements, compensation, and conditions of employment. The House Resume Bank does not possess hiring authority, nor does it control salaries or job requirements. Specific titles and duties for staff positions may vary.</p><h3><strong>House Employment Bulletin</strong></h3><p>The House Employment Bulletin is a weekly email featuring a list of job openings available within Member and Committee offices.</p><p>Interested job seekers can <a href="https://public.govdelivery.com/accounts/USCAOHOUSE/signup/42852">subscribe</a> to receive these weekly emails and unsubscribe at any time by contacting the Office of Talent and Development at <a href="mailto: Careers@mail.house.gov">Careers@mail.house.gov</a>. Please note: Application instructions for positions posted in the Bulletin may vary.</p><p>House offices wishing to advertise vacancies in the Bulletin should contact the Office of Talent and Development for more information.</p><p><em>The U.S. House of Representatives is an equal opportunity employer. All applicants will be considered without regard to race, color, national origin, religion, sex (including marital or parental status), disability, or age. Transportation and all related travel expenses associated with the interview and hiring process must be paid by the applicant. Moving and related relocation expenses are not available. Continued employment with Officers and the Inspector General of the House of Representatives is contingent upon satisfactorily completing a criminal history records check. Employment with the U.S. House of Representatives is at-will.</em></p></div> </div> </div> </article> <section class="views-element-container block block-views block-views-blockhousegov-vacancies-block-member-committee clearfix" id="block-views-block-housegov-vacancies-block-member-committee"> <div class="form-group"><div class="view view-housegov-vacancies view-id-housegov_vacancies view-display-id-block_member_committee js-view-dom-id-fd6b323067ae748710ef8d527bcd8c4a1d2b88b5a5e516eab426fbaa2c1be295"> </div> </div> </section> </div> </section> <aside class="col-xs-16 col-md-4 pull-md-12"> <div class="region region-sidebar-first"> <nav role="navigation" aria-labelledby="block-submenu-secondary-menu" id="block-submenu-secondary"> <div class="visually-hidden" id="block-submenu-secondary-menu">Sub Menu: Secondary</div> <ul class="menu nav"> <li> <a href="/visitors" title="Visitors" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/5">Visitors</a> </li> <li> <a href="/educators-and-students" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/6">Educators and Students</a> </li> <li> <a href="/media" title="Media" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/7">Media</a> </li> <li> <a href="/doing-business-with-the-house" title="Doing Business with the House" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/8">Doing Business with the House</a> </li> <li class="active"> <a href="/employment" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/9">Employment</a> <ul class="menu nav"> <li class="active"> <a href="/employment/positions-with-members-and-committees" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/86" class="is-active" aria-current="page">Positions with Members and Committees</a> <ul class="menu nav"> <li> <a href="/employment/positions-with-members-and-committees/house-resume-bank" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/893">House Resume Bank</a> </li> <li> <a href="/employment/positions-with-members-and-committees/new-member-resume-bank" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/919">New Member Resume Bank</a> </li> </ul> </li> <li> <a href="/employment/positions-with-other-house-organizations" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/297">Positions with Other House Organizations</a> </li> <li> <a href="/employment/information-for-new-employees" title="New employees can view a list of forms that must be filled out when joining the House." data-drupal-link-system-path="node/90">Information for New Employees</a> </li> <li> <a href="/employment/information-for-former-employees" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/94">Information for Former Employees</a> </li> </ul> </li> </ul> </nav> </div> </aside> </div> </div> <footer class="footer container"> <div class="region row region-footer"> <section id="block-footer-content" class="block col-sm-4 block-block-content block-block-contentbf4bee14-47e9-447f-ba00-c2b312d1d662 clearfix"> <div class="field field--name-field-block-node-embed-ref field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field--item"><article class="housegov-page default clearfix"> <div class="content"> <div class="field field--name-field-page-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field--item"><p>U.S. House of Representatives<br> Washington, DC 20515<br> Phone: <a href="tel:+12022243121">202-224-3121</a><br> TTY: <a href="tel:+12022251904">202-225-1904</a></p></div> <div class="entity-ref-tab-formatter-accordion" id="entity-ref-accordion-formatter--3"> </div> </div> </article> </div> </section> <section id="block-footer-menu" class="block col-sm-12 block-system block-system-menu-blockfooter clearfix"> <ul class="menu nav"> <li class="expanded dropdown"> <a href="/accessibility" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/10">Accessibility</a> </li> <li class="expanded dropdown"> <a href="/contact-webmaster" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/95">Contact Webmaster</a> </li> <li class="expanded dropdown"> <a href="/feature-stories" data-drupal-link-system-path="feature-stories">Feature Stories</a> </li> <li class="expanded dropdown"> <a href="/privacy-policy" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/98">Privacy Policy</a> </li> <li class="expanded dropdown"> <a href="/sitemap" data-drupal-link-system-path="sitemap">Site Map</a> </li> <li class="expanded dropdown"> <a href="/site-tools" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/97">Site Tools</a> </li> <li class="expanded dropdown"> <a href="/terms-of-use" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/96">Terms of Use</a> </li> <li class="expanded dropdown"> <a href="/watch-houselive" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/199">Watch live.house.gov</a> </li> </ul> </section> </div> <script> var elementExists = document.getElementById("required-jobnum");
