Best Places to Work in the Federal Government

Today I stumbled across the Best Places to Work in the Federal Government in 2009. I can't say that I was suprised by the results. It is a wide known fact that the Government Accountability Office is always one of the best places to work- it ranked 2nd this year with an improvement of 6.9% since 2007. Below, I have listed this year's results.

2009 Overall Index Scores

1-Nuclear Regulatory Commission
2-Government Accountability Office
3-National Aeronautics and Space Administration
4-Intelligence Community
5-Department of State
6-Environmental Protection Agency
7-Department of Justice
8-General Services Administration
9-Social Security Administration
10-Department of Commerce

2009 represents the 4th time these ranking have come out. Other years are 2003, 2005, and 2007.

So perhaps, when looking for a job in the government, you should pay extra attention to these 10 agencies. And please take a few moments to visit the Web site as it breaks down these results even more. It labels them as Best in Class scores and breaks them down in demographic. This is a very interesting site that can be a great resource when looking for a job in the Federal Government.
