Border Patrol To Host Spring 2023 Virtual Career Expo

SAN DIEGO — U.S. Customs and Border Protection will host a Spring 2023 Virtual Career Expo on Wednesday, April 19 and the law enforcement agency said it hopes to bring more women into its ranks.

At the Spring 2023 Career Expo CBP will have dedicated female recruiters to support female applicants interested in a career with CBP.

"CBP recognizes the critical skills that women bring to law enforcement and continues to explore new ways to increase female representation among its ranks," Assistant Commissioner for Human Resources Management Andrea Bright said.

In October 2022 CBP signed on to the 30x30 Initiative to increase the representation of women in law enforcement within its ranks so that it is not only more reflective of the people it serves, but also a more inclusive workplace.

"In addition to our marketing and advertising campaigns, CBP has also engaged several female-focused organizations, including Women in Federal Law Enforcement, in support of this initiative,” Bright said.

CBP is seeking men and women for entry-level and experienced law enforcement and professional staff positions across the agency. Interested applicants can discuss career options with CBP recruiters and attend live group presentations to learn more about the hiring process.

CBP is one of only two federal agencies to be named to the 2021 “10 Best Companies for Veterans” list, compiled by Monster.com. Veterans account for almost 26 percent of all new hires and more than 28 percent of CBP’s total workforce.
