Federal Jobs? If you are hired for a federal position in any branch of the goverment; For your first year of employment where you are required to serve a 1 year probationary term, is it pretty much inevitable that management or other individuals will highly criticize your performance reviews, and/or illegitamately try to find ways to make it appear that you cannot do your job in an attempt to get you laid off and/or fired? I am in my first year of a federal position, and this one manager really has it out for me, even though I meet my job requirements, am never late, have not been absent once yet, am respectful polite and understanding to him, listen to what he tells me to do, and he still finds crooked ways to lower my performance reviews. He recently stated that I will be fired if I don't improve my performance within the next 5 days. I've talked to him, and he is very evasive, doesn't answer my questions directly, and continually tries to beat around the bush when I ask questions, and for help. ?

Federal Jobs? How do you find these kinds of jobs? Where do you apply? Any links would be helpful.? I've heard that there are Fed Jobs for support staff at remote locations that require you to be there for a certain period, 3 months to 6 months for example, and that since you are at a remote location, such as a polar base, you recieve bonuses and/or hardship pay. I saw this covered on one of the major network's news programs at least 2 years ago, and it was mentioned that the people who did these jobs regularly came back because the pay was so high, one example was a kitchen worker who worked for 6 months and recieved 60,000 dollars.

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. After submitting a resume through USAjobs, filling out the occupational questionnaire, making the selection list and participating in a second interview how long does it usually take after this interview for the government to reach a hiring decision? 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

What is the best way to land a federal job on the Information Technology field? Currently I am reading some books on how to prepare resumes for federal jobs. I looked in usajob.opm.gov for jobs and apply, but I always seem to not even get called (not pass the first screening). I currently have a bachelors degree in Information Technology, planning on getting my master starting on march 23 and hold 4 comptia certifications (will get some microsoft ones soon). What am I doing wrong? I understand that many people prefer to work in the states and I am looking at overseas jobs. I forgot to mention that I served in the U.S. Navy for 7 years, so I have veterans preference. Check my online portfolio at http://www.prnetcom.com/portfolio/index.html and let me know what i might be doing wrong. My resume is in there too.

Would you leave a Federal government job to work at a State government job? Some have said this is a step down. But if the State job pays more and has more desirable duties, would you do it?

Is leaving federal for state a bad move?

Federal Government Jobs? I was wondering, what federal government jobs are available for someone who is 19 years of age, going to 20 in October of this year. I want to know what would be best thing to do, where and how. I have a brother who was advised by uncle to get in the federal government jobs and succeed there in other to have a stable and secure job, since nowadays it is very hard to find a regular secure job. I want to know what he can do so I can help him, and suggest him some of the possible offers, because I know there are many places that require older age. We live in New York City, any suggestions will be gladly taken, We thank you in advance. No not at all, its just that he wants to have a good background, he is studying to become a Civil Engineer, and with a federal job, such as a immigration officer etc he can leave after a few years and he becomes a professional and you never know, maybe become someone big in business, after becoming anything with Law enforcement as well. Like a Police Officer etc.
