Defense Supply Center - Philadelphia

Ready Your Career with DSCP

The Defense Supply Center Philadelphia (DSCP) is an Inventory Control Point within the Defense Logistics Agency. DSCP annually provides over $4.85 billion worth of food, clothing, textiles, medicines, medical equipment, general and industrial supplies and services to America's war fighters, their eligible dependents and other non-Defense Department customers worldwide. DSCP is located on the Naval Inventory Control Point (NAVICP) Philadelphia Compound in Northeast Philadelphia at 700 Robbins Avenue, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19111-5096.

Programs

We offer two student employment programs. DSCP has a variety of flexible work schedules that employees can choose including eight, nine or ten hour days (based on full-time employment). Plus, employees can vary their arrival/departure times within a specified period. Employees can earn up to thirteen sick days per year and vacation days start at thirteen days per year (based on full-time employment).

  • The Student Career Experience Program provides for periods of attendance at accredited schools combined with periods of career-related work. Students who have met all the requirements of this Program may be noncompetitively converted to a career or career-conditional appointment in an occupation related to their academic training and work study experiences within 120 days of completion of their academic program. Tuition assistance is available for all or part of the training expenses.

  • The Student Temporary Employment Program provides flexibility to appoint students on a temporary basis to jobs that may or may not be related to their academic field of study. Appointments are not to exceed one year; extensions are permissible in one-year increments. Students may be converted to the Student Career Experience Program when requirements of that program are met and an appropriate position is available. Employment can range from summer jobs to positions that can last for as long as the individual is a student.

The Programs are year-round programs and appointments may be made at any time during the year, including summer. Students may work full-time or part-time schedules. There are no limitations on the number of hours students can work per week, but it should not interfere with their academic schedule. There is no requirement for students to meet any specific economic/income criteria to be eligible for either component.

Applications

Applications are accepted year-round for most student programs, with the exception of the summer program that is advertised around March 15th every year.
