Tax Relief News: IRS Recruits Hundreds of New Agents via YouTube to Crack Down on Back Taxes
If you are a taxpayer that is overwhelmed by back taxes, delinquent tax returns or interest, you may be constantly worried about the IRS knocking on your door with a collection notice. And that day may be sooner than you expect as the IRS is out to hire hundreds of new agents and using the internet to swiftly find and recruit new employees.
As the most powerful collection agency on the planet the IRS is keeping up with the times. The bureau has jumped on the social media bandwagon and is using YouTube – to recruit new graduates!
Recently the IRS launched a new YouTube playlist Working at the IRS that features IRS employees and the various jobs the bureau offers. This jobseekers playlist, “…is a great opportunity for new graduates and applicants to explore employment with the IRS and join a dedicated workforce serving our nation’s taxpayers,” says IRS Chief Human Capital Officer James Falcone.
The aim of the channel is to show applicants considering working for the IRS a first-hand account of a particular position, the agency’s work culture and a detailed breakdown of available careers. Though this may sound like a good idea to a jobseeker, it goes to show how serious the IRS is about cracking down on taxpayers with back taxes, delinquent tax returns or tax cheats - and using new channels to do so! The IRS has a record $5.5 billion budget from Congress this year to enforce tax collection and close in on tax cheats. The agency is now using mainstream YouTube to hire hundreds of new IRS agents to see these goals through.
Admittedly using YouTube to seek employees sounds like a trendy idea, but is worrisome nevertheless. The IRS boasts a wide range of jobs available to new grads and even veterans. While there are currently over 100,000 full time employees, the agency is serious about using its resources and hiring new agents – this new playlist is part of their IRS YouTube channel IRSvideos, which provides tax tips and news for individuals and businesses.
