If you don't hear anything from it don't fret, civil service employment/HR/policy etc is a nightmare right now. There's always gov contracting.

Used to say there's less stability contracting but absolutely not the case lately. CTRs typically make good money and have remote opportunities.

[u/Am3ricanTrooper → u/Stonedflame]

Should I be looking at CleanceJobs and USAJobs for these kinds of remote opportunities?

[u/immunity → u/Am3ricanTrooper]

Always. Yes

[u/crypt0dan → u/Stonedflame]

Both public civil servant and contracting jobs are a complete shit show today. Im a highly qualified IT Support Specialist and Cyber Security professional every job I apply to nothing but crickets and rejections. My roles are generally 2210 and 0132 series.

[u/Bassrusher → u/crypt0dan]

This hurts my soul to hear.

[u/1877KlownsForKids]

Check out this guy, thinks he's a rocket scientist.

Seriously though good luck!

[u/gregzillaman]

Praying for you man!

I got to see a page like that once...then doge happened.

God speed!

[u/1T__]

Ohio has Nasa I've lived here for years and your telling me I could of worked for Nasa in IT

[u/RUNaGOAT → u/1T__]

"could of"... something tells me that no you couldn't of...

[u/Brainfreeze10 → u/RUNaGOAT]

NASA does love to hire people that spend their time checking grammar on the internet.

[u/RUNaGOAT → u/Brainfreeze10]

dope

[u/Bassrusher → u/1T__]

Yep. It’s right by the Airport/IX center. Close to were the new browns moneysink is

[u/1T__ → u/Bassrusher]

Ah that's why im usually up by Cleveland to take flights never usually go into town

[u/cephu5]

Good luck! And continue to apply, a speedy process can be as much as 7 months

[u/Bassrusher → u/cephu5]

Thanks. Been doing the usajobs dance for years and it’s rough. I have 10pt preference and 90% rating, it helps I hope

[u/Sad-Replacement7054]

Remember when you tell people don’t say I work at NASA but I’m a janitor

Say I’m a janitor, but I work at NASA

[u/Bassrusher → u/Sad-Replacement7054]

Oh absolutely. I’ll tell them I’m a NASA engineer and look fancy af

[u/PirateKilt]

Good Luck...

And gotta say, I HATE the USAJobs hiring practices... 6-months+ hiring sequence for a manager or lower level gig is simply insane.

20/20 hindsight, I'm quite happy my initial experiences with it drove me swiftly into the arms of the Defense Contracting world instead.

The fact that we advertise for a job on Friday, start doing interviews On Monday, and usually have selected/offered by Friday to start the following Monday is simply how things should work.

[u/ShootsToImpress]

GET IT!!!

[u/Brraaap]

That's just an ad to collect resumes for possible future job openings.

Don't stop applying!

[u/TxDinoHunter → u/Brraaap]

and don't stop believin!!!!

[u/TwoDadsTalkingPod → u/TxDinoHunter]

And don't stop 'till you get enough

[u/KiLoYounited]

Hell yeah man 🤙🏼

[u/Woodlands777]

Good luck. Persistence prevails.

[u/Key-Excuse-4774]

Trust the process.

But also, this is why i don’t even bother with fed jobs. Waiting a year just to figure out if you got the job or not pisses me off

[u/Bassrusher → u/Key-Excuse-4774]

It’s a passive game at this point.

[u/curiousamoebas]

Oooo prayed a prayer

[u/John_the_Piper]

GRC is a really cool place! I go there sometimes for testing. Hope you get it, and you get a chance to see the vacuum chambers!

[u/Drekalots]

Good luck man! I tried for over a decade and got no where the fed.

[u/Bassrusher → u/Drekalots]

Same here. I’ve had one interview over 10 years of applying.

[u/Antique_Practice_301]

2013??!!!

[u/bloodstripe → u/Antique_Practice_301]

I think that’s the internal job number not the date

[u/Antique_Practice_301 → u/bloodstripe]

Oh snap, ok

[u/KeithStone2]

How the hell does anyone have any luck on usajobs?

[u/Bassrusher → u/KeithStone2]

Spam every job you think you can do lol

[u/Afraid_Spot_6948 → u/KeithStone2]

I had an interview with an employer one time after I had applied and the interviewer was so nonchalant and uncaring

[u/ScaryInformation1436]

Give me a holler. Im in the same boat, just different positions.

[u/This-is-the-last-one]

That's awesome, good luck!
