IRS NOW HIRING.
The IRS is feverishly looking to hire 30-50 people. They have openings right now for the people we call Schedule A’s. This group includes the disabled, physically challenged, the deaf/DHOH, the blind and others. Here is a link to more detail on the Schedule A program:

The jobs available now are data transcription jobs for both day and night shifts. The essential skill associated with the position is typing/data entry/10 key. Paid training and vacation and health care benefits are associated with these jobs. And there are other benefits that are significant and in some cases rare in the KC business world.
These are permanent jobs with a seasonal schedule. A person who is hired for one of these jobs, assuming their performance meets the standards, will be called back each year. And by becoming a federal employee the individual will be able to compete for full time permanent jobs at the IRS and at any federal agency.
They have a vibrant, large DHOH community here. We have 2 staff interpreters and arrange with contract interpreters to support DHOH people on night shift.
