About
What CareerStation is, where its information comes from, and who runs it.
CareerStation gathers what the military entrance processing stations publishes about its civilian career fields and its 64 processing stations, and presents it for somebody deciding whether to work there.
The Problem
- Career information is spread across pages written for people being processed rather than for people who want to work there.
- Station pages give an address and a phone number, and nothing about the place itself, which is what somebody weighing a move needs to know.
- Events, veteran and student hiring paths, and SkillBridge sit in separate places, when they are published at all.
- Openings live on USAJOBS, which is the right place to apply and the wrong place to discover that an employer exists.
What It Builds
- Career field pages for the 7 fields the stations hire for.
- A map-first station directory covering headquarters, both sectors, the battalions, and every station, filterable by sector, battalion, and state.
- Events, hiring paths, recruitment campaigns, and the people already doing the work.
- A signpost to USAJOBS, always resolving to the authoritative announcement.
Who Maintains the Content
Government staff, through an administrative interface, with no code change and no deployment request. That is a requirement rather than a feature: a page only the contractor can update has not been delivered. The public site is built from that content and served as static files, so the content management system is never exposed to the internet.
Where the Information Comes From
Organizational structure, station locations, and addresses come from the stations’ public pages at mepcom.army.mil. Coordinates are derived from those addresses through the U.S. Census Geocoder. Map tiles are from CARTO and Esri, over OpenStreetMap data. Federal openings are announced on USAJOBS.
What It Does Not Do
CareerStation never accepts an application, a resume, or an eligibility document, and keeps no record of who applied for what. Applying happens on USAJOBS, which is the federal system of record for it.
Built by MetaPhase
MetaPhase built MPworks as our modernization factory, equipping Forward Deployed Engineers with the technology, automation, reusable capabilities, and engineering practices needed to turn critical needs into outcomes. Our lean, AI-powered teams build Mission Protoware: working systems designed to move rapidly from proof of concept to full operational capability in production. MetaPhase built ChallengeAI, our suite of 12 accelerators spanning the full software development lifecycle, using the latest frontier AI available through FedRAMP-authorized services.
CareerStation is built and operated by MetaPhase, and it speaks for MetaPhase. It organizes what the stations publish about their civilian workforce and sends anyone ready to apply to USAJOBS, which is where federal applications are made.
