My son is leaving the Marine Corps after a five year enlistment and wants to apply that time towards a government job.   His apartment is halfway between Corona and Riverside.  Can anyone recommend a facility to look for government jobs that doesn’t involve a soul-crushing commute?

His MOS was in IT, but I don’t think he wants to make that a career.   I’ve already sent him the link to USAjobs.gov.

This is California.  Everything is a soul  Fed court in Riverside? crushing commute.  Actually out of the job market so can't say if any suggestions besides the USAsite.  Naval weapons site of some sort in Norco, quite close.  VA hospital in Loma Linda.  March Air Reserve Base?  That'sjust off the top of my head.

I'm hiring 7 IT positions: 3 in coding, 2 service desk, and 2 network folks at March ARB.

The bitch is that my HQ HR is so screwed up that I can't get them done.

@Paul

March ARB would be perfect.  It's only 15 miles to the east of his apartment.  He has a few weeks until he starts terminal leave.  I'll reach out to him and see what his prospects are.

OP,

Send me an IM with your son's contact info.  I go to school with a guy (Pretty sure he's a former jarhead) that works IT for a VA call center that's located on March ARB in Riverside.

Most all the other students in my class are prior military and work in IT as govt employees or contractors in the SoCal area.  I'll put the feelers out in class tomorrow to see if anyone has suggestions.

I grew up at March. Maybe I should ride up there some day and look around. Doubt I'll remember much, left 38 years ago
