Welcome to the Maryland State Online Employment Center!
We appreciate that you are considering opportunities to serve your community and the State. The job opportunities below provide vital support to Maryland residents, including critical services such as public safety, health care, and education.
The State of Maryland also provides its employees with strong benefits, including health coverage, retirement benefits, ample leave time, reduced child care costs, among many others. Many positions are also eligible for telework.
To find the job openings you are most interested in, narrow your search using the filter options below. If you do not see a result from your filtered search, that means there are no current open positions for your selection. If you would like to be notified by email when a particular type of job opens, click on Interest Cards.
In response to the FY26 Budget, Governor Moore announced a hiring freeze for the Executive Branch of the State of Maryland. As such, the State is temporarily pausing recruitment efforts for most positions.
However, certain classifications -- e.g. in public safety -- are exempted from the hiring freeze and so are still actively being recruited for. Applications for these roles are encouraged and you may see the complete list of those active recruitments below. Thank you for your continued interest in opportunities with the State of Maryland.
Federal Workers Hiring Initiative
The Moore-Miller Administration remains committed to making it possible for public servants who raised their hand to serve our country to stay in Maryland. Federal workers have years of expertise and knowledge that are an asset to our state. As part of this initiative, critical and hard-to-fill job areas will be opened for a streamlined hiring process. Opportunities will be posted on a rolling basis – so please stay tuned to this page and check back to see new streamlined hiring opportunities as they become available.
In the meantime, if you are interested in continuing your public service in a new way, please see the full list of regular positions below.
