I am considering getting a trigger job for my XD. I see that SA offers Trigger jobs.

Can you compete with an XD with a trigger job?

Yes, http://www.uspsa.org/rules/2008HandgunRulesindexed.pdf

Yes APPENDIX D4---Production Division

6: Minimum trigger pull ----No

21: Authorized modifications (Strictly limited to these items and their stated guidelines)

•Internal throating and polishing to improve accuracy, reliability and function
•Sights – trimmed, adjusted, replaced, colored, or fiber-optic.
•Slide – refinishing. Milling of slide – only as required to insert sights.
•After-market slides and barrels – provided they are the same length, contour, and caliber as original factory standard.
•Grips – Internal beveling. Checkering, stippling, and addition of grip tape or grip sleeves. (see Appendix E4)
•Exchange of minor components (springs, safeties, slide stops, guide rods).

EDIT: Sorry took me a while to post that, I see Scott already beat me too it.

Thank you for the clarification on USPSA rules.

Are trigger jobs on an XD legal for all forms of competition?

Put another way, are there shooting sports that one would use an XD in that trigger jobs are not allowed?

There might be something in Bullseye but I doubt it would apply to the XD.

IPSC(not USPSA) requires a 5lb trigger for their version of Production. That is only if you go to an overseas match like the World shoot.
