federal government has set a goal to become a model employer of individuals
with disabilities. The report shows that in Fiscal Year 2013, more people
with disabilities were hired by the federal government than at any other
point in the past 33 years. Additionally, more people with targeted
disabilities were hired than at any time in the past 18 years.

2. Getting Your Foot in the Door at a Federal Agency. Several internship
programs can help people with disabilities get their "foot in the door" in
federal employment. One example is the Workforce Recruitment Program (WRP)

and private sector employers to motivated college students and recent
graduates with disabilities. Candidates who apply to WRP are pre-screened
through interviews by federal recruiters. Qualified candidates are then
added to the WRP database, which includes information about each applicant's
skills and notes from recruiter interviews. Federal and private sector
employers can also search the database for capabilities tailored to specific
job requirements. The program works, too. Check out these two success
stories featuring employees with disabilities who were hired after
completing their internships, one at the Pentagon
