MADISON – The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is hosting a hiring event Thursday, Jan. 27 to assist individuals interested in applying for a job as a Transportation Security Officer (TSO) at Central Wisconsin Airport.
The event takes place from 1 p.m.-6 p.m. at the TSA Administrative Offices, 100 CWA Drive, Mosinee, WI 54455. Click here to register.
Attendees will receive information about TSO positions and have the opportunity to complete multiple steps of the hiring process. The event includes a presentation about the TSO role, application assistance, and scheduling of computer-based testing for job seekers. Participants will be able to complete all or part of these processes, which will significantly reduce the time required to get on board with TSA.
As part of the presentation sessions during the event, TSA will provide an overview of working for the federal government and discuss benefits, which include paid leave, health care plans, 401k coverage and more.
Starting pay at CWA is $16.90 per hour with opportunities for pay increases after six months. TSA is offering a sign-on bonus of up to $2,000 to eligible new hires – $1,000 after onboarding and an additional $1,000 after one year of service, with service agreement. This initiative applies to TSO new hires that onboard through June 4, 2022.
Candidates are required to have two valid forms of state or federal identification, and masks are required.
TSA seeks those who want to take the initial step into a rewarding federal career and support TSA’s critical mission of protecting our nation’s transportation systems.
Hiring events in Green Bay and Milwaukee are scheduled in the coming weeks. For more information on those events or to learn more about TSA careers, visit https://jobs.tsa.gov/.
