Important Recruiting Notice:

Thank you for your interest in a career with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. The first step in the application process is attendance at a Career Orientation. Regular orientations are held in the Atlanta Office, for persons residing in Georgia, Tennessee, North and South Carolina. The dates for upcoming orientations are listed below. All orientations are held in the DEA Training Center located on the 8th floor of the Richard B. Russell Federal Bldg., 75 Spring St. SW, Atlanta, GA 30303. The orientations begin at 12:30 PM and end at 4:15 PM. Doors to the Training Center open at 12:00 PM on the orientation dates. Please plan for a fifteen minute security delay when entering the building.

The day after each orientation, we begin taking reservations for the next orientation . To reserve seating at an orientation, please EMAIL Special Agent Eldred Clemons-Earls at Eldred.X.Earls@usdoj.gov with the following information. Please use the exact format as follows:

Seating is limited to the first (65) persons, on a first come, first served basis. You will receive a return EMAIL, confirming your reservation along with some important information. Do not show up for orientation unless you receive an EMAIL confirmation. Suggested dress for orientations is either business, business casual or police or military uniform. A valid driver's license or military I.D. is required for building entry.

The DEA is currently experiencing a hiring freeze of all positions. As a result, all orientations have been suspended until the freeze has been lifted. It is not presently known exactly when the freeze will be lifted. Consequently, no applications are being sent out, accepted or processed at this time. In addition, DEA will be aggressively recruiting accounting and finance majors or those with professional experience in these fields once the freeze has been lifted. If you have a degree or professional experience in either of these two areas or a degree with 24 hours of accounting/finance courses or a combination of both please contact your Recruiter when the freeze has lifted. Please continue to visit the website for possible up-dates, additional information, as well as locations where the DEA Recruitment Coordinator will be participating in Career/Job Fairs.

No Orientations are scheduled at this time due to the hiring freeze.

Recruitment Events will be listed upon scheduling.
