Number of total employees: 159,499
At number 5 on our list of easiest government agencies to get into we have the Department of the Air Force that is relatively new among the other departments, as it was only formed in the year 1947 per the National Security Act of 1947. The Department of the Air Force includes all elements and units of the United States Air Force (USAF). The Air Forces is definitely a highly promising line of work and employs a huge number of personnel as we can see from the data, and the large portion of these personnel are not pilots but ground crew and staff.
