As I mentioned I retired in 2012. I think that others would be much more qualified to coach you. Here is one piece of advice. It is easiest to be brought on board during a disaster as a temporary hire. Once you are on board and have worked well during a disaster, then you can apply for more permanent jobs. There are many types of temporary employees including reservists who are mainly older/retired workers. If you can travel and are well adapted to stressful situations, then you are a good candidate to be an emergency worker. Good luck.

Retiree from Dept of Homeland Security here. Can’t wait to watch Parts 2 & 3! I retired in 2020, but prior to this have deployed with FEMA field disaster work while I was still employed with USCIS. I worked alongside several reservists during that time and have had plans to become a Reservist. Great information, Stephanie! 🙏🏾

Thank you so much. You are awesome. I’m retired from USMC and preparing to retire from USPS and looking to continue working in government. I have always considered FEMA and you really helped me understand the agency.

Thanks for the information. I recently finished a bachelors in Homeland Security and Emergency Management and really enjoyed it. And then I got hired the the corps of engineers doing nothing EM related. Now I’m working on a masters in emergency management. 😅 I wanted to be a field guy but 75% of the year is an awful lot. Already did that with the army.

@@Ice_48 I like working for the Corps. I do contracting but once I’m done with school (90 more days!) I’ll be volunteering for the emergency operation department in some capacity. We just had people in HI for the fires and who knows where else. What are you thinking about doing?

Something worth noting about reservist positions who have full time employment elsewhere: According to the FEMA Website, as of September 29, 2022, “The Civilian Reservist Emergency Workforce (CREW) Act protects the job rights of FEMA Reservists while they are deployed to disasters, emergencies and critical trainings by including FEMA Reservists under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployments Rights Act (USERRA). This means that if you hold another job, you are able to deploy as a FEMA reservist and your job will be protected. It also protects you against penalization, discrimination, or loss of employee benefits as a result of your deployments to disasters, emergencies, and critical trainings.” Edit: Well, sh*t…. I should have watched the full series first 😅

Great simplified explanation of the different roles. This is exactly what I needed to know. I’m retired military and I’ve been working in the insurance property claims industry for the last 3 years. I have a lot of down time between hurricanes so I’m thinking that I might be a great candidate for the Reservist position. I spent 25 years being on call and getting shipped out with very little notice.
