What kind of role are you looking for? CSR? Have you looked at your local government in addition to federal opportunities? I've been considering moving into a more local govt role because I think the bureaucracy might be slightly easier to deal with (probably not lol)
Local government is the worse!!!
Imagine hearing in a HR meeting how employees are "placed" in higher paying positions about the allotted 5%. Not because of experience but because a position opened and we like you!
Imagine a place where supervisors take a higher position for themselves to deplete the budget, and you get nothing.
Or you have to wait for an annual raise which might be 3% even though they just got 10%.
Then there is the "you get a position you definitely do not qualify for but hey you spoke to the right people twice this year so year. You get the job!"
The irritating part for me, people who have never worked anywhere else but here. What experience do you really have other than the one you create!
I say hell no to local government.......full of inbreds.
Not in the next 90 days, hiring freeze by EO right now
