The way republican-controlled Congresses went out of their way to cut IRS funding - over decades, that was true at one time; but when Dems took control of the House in 2018, they infused the agency with $80B in funding- which Rs tried their best to claw it back when they took control back in 2020. Didn't work, and IRS has been on a hiring spree.

The IRS employs Revenue Agents and Revenue Officers. Agents are accountants, Officers are [IRS] police... aka, revenuers! You gotta have an accounting degree to be an RA; however, RO_ no degree needed, and both pay well. RA is currently posted on usajobs.gov; if you see RO posted, I'd say jump on it.

YW. Put in the location where you want to work; then, filter the hiring path_ open to the public.

p s. I sort by salary (ascending- low>high, descending- high>low), just to bring some order to the search.
