Workforce Recruitment Program
The Workforce Recruitment Program for College Students with Disabilities (WRP), coordinated by the U.S. Department of Labor and the U.S. Department of Defense, is a recruitment and referral program that connects federal and select private-sector employers with highly motivated college students, graduate students, and recent graduates with disabilities who are eager to demonstrate their abilities in the workplace through summer or permanent jobs.
If you are interested in applying to the program and interviewing with a representative from WRP, please visit www.wrp.gov and click on the student registration button to get started!
Eligible students must:
- have a disability and be eligible under the Schedule A hiring authority
- be a United States citizen
- be currently enrolled in a degree program on a substantially full-time basis OR have graduated with a degree on or after April 1, 2018.
Please note that candidates must reapply each program year to continue to participate.
