IMA program to hire 1,600 by September

The Individual Mobilization Augmentee program is set to hire 1,600 Airmen by September in positions opening worldwide in all career fields. Recent attrition rates and the rise of new positions have created a great need to grow the program. Unlike any other Air Force service member, IMAs have flexibility when they work and where.

“We’re hiring and that is terrific news on several fronts,” said Col. Nancy Zbyszinski, commander, Readiness Management Group. The RMG oversees the Air Force’s 8,700 IMAs and 1,500 Participating Individual Ready Reservists. “The IMA program offers a unique opportunity to serve in Reserve status for those who are not located near a traditional Guard or Reserve unit, for anyone who cannot commit to one weekend every month, or for anyone who wants to participate in new Air Force missions.”
