Hey Everyone.
Applied through the GS jobs portal on 10/5 for the early careers program in SLC, one position in trade and transaction management, the other in client services/sales support.
Heard back through the recruiter on 10/8 and just got my HireVue last night (10/13) and completed it today 10/14. Both of the positions are currently saying “Resume Under Review”

Any insight to this at all? How long it’s taken to get a super day invite back? How soon after did you get a rejection or offer?

Our district is so lax on the students this year. With tech issues and distance learning days, we’ve gone from accommodating to enabling real quick. No penalties for late work, taking excuses for attendance, lower academic and behavioral standards... We were beginning to make so much progress on transforming our school culture, but this year is erasing that and then some. Is anyone else concerned about how to raise the expectations and students’ self-discipline back to pre-enabling levels?

I am in self-contained. Our students are never sent home even tho they are obviously ill. Only projectile vomiting sends a student home.

I’ve got a really good job. Wasn’t looking to move but a big 4 consulting firm reached out. I received a very generous/life changing offer.

I know that I can manage my current workload. I don’t want to pass up a great opportunity but I’ve got to be available for my family too!
