I know the jobs won't come until 2011, but what other opportunities are there to get my feet wet at WPAFB?

The best place to start looking for employment information for Wright-Patt is the Civilian Personnel Employment Office World Wide Website located here:  https://wrightpattjobs.wpafb.af.mil/

Will the base use staffing agencies to help locate the correct people to fill upcoming vacancies?

There is not a plan to use staffing agencies at this time.   If we run into barriers that can not be overcome, that may be an option.
