You don’t have to be an astronaut to work for NASA (although, the agency is currently accepting applications for the astronaut candidate program). NASA is more than just astronauts—it’s also scientists, engineers, human resources specialists, technicians and accountants. In fact, you might be surprised to learn what types of jobs the agency is looking to fill right now. And why not? NASA remains one of the top federal government places to work according to a survey by the Partnership for Public Service.
“Those of us at NASA know it’s a great place to work,” says NASA
Administrator Charles Bolden. “We are the world leader in space exploration and
cutting-edge science missions, and contribute to the economic vitality of our
great nation. We reach for new heights and challenge our employees to carry out
missions to benefit humankind. What job could be better than that?”
