Don’t take it personally. They mass send. I was told I am an amazing fit for a CFO role, I just graduated.

They're like the cops that sit on the shoulder of the road at the end of the month. They have quotas to fill. They just want to be able to say they reached out to X candidates or got a hold of X resumes for a role. As long as they have a few qualified ones, the rest become casualties.

smart

They were from a recruiting agency!

Anyone have any advice or insight on interviewing for a GS General Attorney position? I’m really excited and working to prepare for an interview I’ve been offered.

I’m a litigation junior associate in private practice now, but have a long academic background in international trade, policy, and security.

I read a lot of posts here about difficult bosses, difficult clients, difficult partners, terrible briefs and terrible agencies. All that might be true. But it’s getting old. What I’d be interested in hearing about are the stories of how people have overcome the challenges. How did you sell that big idea? How did you fix a relationship? The world is not going to get easier. So maybe we can help each other get better at dealing with it. Who had a win recently? How did you do it?

Working on a long term brand platform, which had the potential to be a really stellar, powerful body of work.

Sadly, it's being driven into the ground so hard by stakeholders that I have no love left for it. It's slowly becoming an embarrassment.
