ICE is recruiting for three primary roles: deportation officer, criminal investigator, and general attorney, with listings also available through federal job sites.

The recruitment campaign offers up to $50,000 signing bonuses, student loan repayment and forgiveness options, law enforcement availability pay of 25% for special agents, administratively uncontrollable overtime pay for deportation officers, and enhanced retirement benefits.

The DHS aims to hire 10,000 new ICE agents as part of this recruitment drive, supported by the funding in the congressional spending bill known as the 'One Big Beautiful Bill.'

The campaign uses patriotic imagery including depictions of Uncle Sam and slogans such as 'America Needs You' and 'Your country is calling upon you to serve' to evoke national duty and encourage applications.

The goal is to strengthen ICE’s operational capacity to find, arrest, and remove the 'worst of the worst' criminal illegal aliens from the United States, supported by the administration's focus on mass deportation efforts.
