The USDA website has a specific career at http://www.usda.gov/wps/portal/usda/content?navid=CAREERS.
You might want to consider opportunities with the FDA. Recently an Army veterinarian protege (ACP) obtained a position with the FDA.
Start with usajob.gov, you can actually search by the agency you wish to work for. It's important to include all preferences.
