Hi All,

I received an interview for the APS4 Project Support Officer position at the Department of Defence. Would anyone here be able to provide advice or tips on how to ace the interview and what potential questions would be asked?

Thank you.

I don't know a thing about that particular position, but prepare for standard behavioral questions ("Tell me a time when...") and questions around project support/project management. Make sure you answer your questions in STAR format.

Do Leidos, SAIC, and other mostly-fed consulting businesses pay bonuses to all levels? If so, what does a typical bonus target look like? Booz Allen does not pay bonuses until you get to the Senior Associate level (1 step below Director) and I think that impacts employee performance and work ethic pretty dramatically. I’m wondering if not paying bonuses is common to federal contracting because of how the contracts or priced, or if this is something unique to Booz Allen.
