[quote=Anonymous]The major issue is if you want to move to another federal job, you don't count as a current, competitively-hired federal employee. That's partly why offices that rely heavily on direct hires have such low attrition rates - people stick around, or they leave the federal government entirely, because it's much harder for them to switch. Also, a lot of direct hire appointments are also term hires. You might find a way to be brought on permanently, but it's less likely than if you were brought on not in a term appointment. [/quote]
