The Northern District of Iowa welcomes and encourages applications from persons with physical and mental disabilities. The office is firmly committed to satisfying its affirmative obligations under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, to ensure that persons with disabilities have every opportunity to be hired and advanced on the basis of merit within the Department of Justice. This office provides reasonable accommodation to applicants with disabilities where appropriate. If you need a reasonable accommodation for any part of the application and hiring process, please email the office at: USAIAN.HR@usdoj.gov.

It is the policy of the Department of Justice to achieve a drug-free workplace and persons selected for employment will be required to pass a drug test which screens for illegal drug use prior to final appointment. Employment is also contingent upon the completion and satisfactory adjudication of a background investigation. This is a thorough investigation which includes checks with present and former employers, military records, and credit bureaus. The investigation also includes verifications of tax filings and attendance at institutions of higher learning. Only U.S. citizens are eligible for employment with the U.S. Attorney's Office.
