In response to the FY26 Budget, Governor Moore announced a hiring freeze for the Executive Branch of the State of Maryland. As such, the State is temporarily pausing recruitment efforts for some positions.
However, certain classifications -- e.g. in public safety, as well those included in the Federal Workers Hiring Initiative -- are exempted from the hiring freeze and so are still actively being recruited for. Applications for these roles are encouraged and you may see the complete list of those active recruitments below. Thank you for your continued interest in opportunities with the State of Maryland.
Federal Workers Hiring Initiative
The Moore-Miller Administration remains committed to making it possible for public servants who raised their hand to serve our country to stay in Maryland. Federal workers have years of expertise and knowledge that are an asset to our state. As part of this initiative, critical and hard-to-fill job areas will be opened for a streamlined hiring process. Below are current active recruitments within the initiative:
- Research and Data Specialist. Please see the job announcement for more information and how to apply here.
In the meantime, if you are interested in continuing your public service in a new way, please see the full list of regular positions below.
