⚠️ Read This Before You Head Downtown

Federal hiring is not a walk-in retail fair. Showing up does not guarantee an interview, an offer or a job, and every opportunity depends on an approved vacancy.

The VA asks candidates to read the participating announcements on USAJOBS first and follow each one's eligibility, qualification and required-document instructions. Some federal postings are limited to current employees or veterans, so check who can apply first.

The VA had not posted a cost or a walk-in policy for the fair when we checked. If you have questions, VA human resources can be reached at (918) 577-3600.

📋 How to Show Up Ready

Pick your announcements tonight. Note the title and announcement number for each job you want.
Bring a federal-style resume. Federal resumes run longer than private ones and list hours per week, dates and specific duties.
Have your documents handy. Licenses and certifications for clinical roles, and your DD-214 if you are a veteran claiming preference.
Go early. The 6 p.m. finish helps day workers, but expect an afternoon rush.

Why This Hospital Matters for Tulsa Jobs

The Inhofe medical center is a 58-bed, 273,000-square-foot hospital built inside two converted downtown office towers. Veterans in northeast Oklahoma have long driven to Muskogee for VA inpatient care, and a full hospital staff in downtown Tulsa adds federal benefits and a stable employer to a healthcare market already led by Saint Francis, Hillcrest, Ascension St. John and OSU Medicine.

Pay for each position is set on the federal scale and printed on its USAJOBS announcement, so check the grade and range there rather than trusting a number on a third-party listing.
