Help breaking into federal employment? Hi, Over the last 3 months, I've applied to no less than 10 federal employment announcements. With some of them, I was clearly qualified and some even overqualified. Yet, I'm being constantly overlooked in this process. I have no prior federal or military experience. But I do have experience and education. My scores are mid to high 90s. I understand that veterans and current/former federal employees get additional points and or preference, but they would have to score 90+ before the 5 to 10 points to beat my score. I'd like some information on how to increase my score. What am I doing wrong? I want to add that I am applying for GS 05-09 positions. I did a bunch of reading today after posting this and decided to contact the person listed on the last job announcement for which I applied. She told me that for the most part, I'm being outranked by veterans. I suspected this based on my scores and some reading that I've done but I just wasn't sure. She told me that even veterans call them upset and frustrated. They compete against the public and then against each other. She did let me know the fact that I don't rank high enough is good in its own way. Never once was I told that I don't qualify or meet eligibility requirements. That gives me little comfort but at least I have an answer. I was encouraged to keep applying. I'm not sure if I will since there will always be veterans jockeying for the same jobs. I'll never get hired at that rate. Thanks for the answers. If anyone has anything to add, please jump in.

Those of you with federal government jobs: How long did the hiring process take? The federal government is notorious for having a very long and drawn out hiring process. It isn't uncommon for a person to apply for a job in January and not hear anything until May or June.

Would you share some of the experiences you have had with federal government employment? I'm specifically concerned about FCIP (federal career intern position) programs
A question from a textbook on Federal Employment and State Unemployent Taxes? On a Hourly Employee Payroll Register their is a catagory for Taxable Eearnings that FUTA/SUTA falls into. On payroll sheet one of the Employees gross pay is $1302.90. The problem is stucture as follows: FUTA Tax(6.2%)--Normal FUTA tax credit(5.4%)=0.8%.OR, 6.2%--5.4%=.0.8% FUTA tax rate. So $1,302.90 X 0.8%=$10.42. SUTA tax rate would appear as follows $1,302.90 taxable earnings X 5.4% = Suta tax rate =$70.36. This is all based on a wage limit of $7,000. The equation is as follows: Taxable Earnings, FUTA/SUTA = Gross Current Earnings<FUTA/SUTA A Limit of $7,000. The answer under taxable earnings (FUTA/SUTA) would be $1,302.90. The same as the employees gross pay. How can I begin to figure out this involved problem?

Is it reasonable to jump from "DS9" in local Washington D.C. gov to "GS12" in Federal government? Let's suppose I'm an employee of the District of Columbia. That's local, not federal employment. With regard to a jump from a city DS 9 to a Federal GS 12: I believe I have more than ample experience as my city rating was set artificially low when I began -- yes, I took it because it offered a lot of opportunities for experience... hence my confidence in qualifying for a similar, but MUCH higher-paying job directly with Uncle Sam. Do the feds (non-military) calibrate D.C. city positions to a particular grade value within their system? How do they regard salary when the advertised Federal position represents a jump of nearly 80% over the applicant's previous local position.

I was just denied employment b/c of a form of arthritis. Can an employer (FED) deny you on possible symptoms? I have a arthritis cond. I had my dr fill out their form and my outlook is excellent as stated. I still got denied employment (federal) just b/c I have this condition. I guess of the possibility it may get bad, is this discrimination? You can't not hire someone just b/c they have a disease! I could understand if I was in pain or not mobile but I am healthier than most people without this! My doctor even thought it was rediculous! It's kind of like not hiring someone who got over cancer b/c it MAY come back. Not fair. Any thoughts? I went to their Dr. who stated that I did have limited ROM in one area. They then sent paperwork to my Dr. who did a complete physical, and another ROM test to their standard and confirmed everything was normal. Signed and dated. So they can't say it's b/c of my ROM b/c I passed a physical and a ROM test! How frustrating. Just b/c god chose me to have this disease-which is fine, I can handle it through treatment but to get denied makes me feel like I'm incapeable when I'm not at all. Thanks guys! Thank you nana but how can they discharge him on just a possibility? That is discrimination if you ask me. This job does have particular things I had to pass as far as ROM, but I passed them all with no problem, and my doctor filled out their required paperwork stating so.. So how can you disqualify someone on a posibility?
