Pop quiz: Name the nation&#39;s largest employer. Everyone knows that it&#39;s the government, right? And everyone also knows that they&#39;ve been ramping up hiring ever since the 2008 election and the passage of the stimulus bill. And there&#39;s better news: according to Forbes, &quot;Uncle Sam will hire 600,000 people over the next four years.&quot; And we&#39;re not just talking temporary census hiring either. Forbes were good enough to put together a list of positions you should apply for right now&amp;mdash;and all of them pay well over six figures. But when they say &quot;right now,&quot; they mean it: the application date for some of the positions is as early as the end of this week. Here&#39;s their list in full:&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Management and Program Analyst, Department of Education&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Location: Washington, D.C.&lt;br&gt;Application Deadline: March 17&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Supervisory Program Specialist, Department of Education&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Location: Washington, D.C.&lt;br&gt;Application Deadline: March 19&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Senior Research Scientist/Specialist, Institute of Education Sciences, Department of Education&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Application Deadline: December 31&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Supervisor, General Attorney, Department of Education&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Location: Chicago, IL  &lt;br&gt;Application Deadline: March 19&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Associate General Counsel for Policy Development, Peace Corps&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Location:  Washington, D.C.&lt;br&gt;Application Deadline:  March 17&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Supervisory Contract Specialist, Peace Corps&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Location: Washington, D.C. &lt;br&gt;Application Deadline: March 14&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Deputy Associate Director for Global Operations, Peace Corps&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Location: Washington, D.C. &lt;br&gt;Application Deadline: March 19&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Financial Manager, Peace Corps&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Location:  Washington, D.C. &lt;br&gt;Application Deadline: March 23&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For more information on any of the positions, check out Forbes&#39; slideshow--it&#39;s in the same order as the list above.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Not sure what the positions entail? Why not check out Vault&#39;s Guide to Government Agency Careers, which breaks down more than 60 different federal divisions, and offers invaluable advice on how to get hired by Uncle Sam.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;--Posted by Phil Stott, Vault.com&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
