What are some government jobs available for people over age 50?

Government jobs available to people over age 50 include Transportation Security Officer and Medical Support Assistant. The government operates an official employment website, at usajobs.gov, that specifics the requirements for each job. Education and experience, rather than age, are often common factors for employment in these jobs.

Those looking for government jobs can search the website by job title, skills or specific government agency, as well as by location. Advanced search features narrow the job listing by salary, schedule and other options. USA Jobs provides listings for both federal employees and private U.S. citizens, as well as veterans and students. A special section is devoted to jobs for people with physical disabilities.
