[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH is an attorney with a 10 year career at a non profit. From March through June, he applied to about 10 federal jobs, mostly at one agency. He got an interview for every job at that agency (none at the others, where he has no subject matter expertise). He got a tentative [b]job offer in July[/b] for a GS-14 position. [b]The background check dragged out[/b] and he didn’t get the final offer until recently. He is [b]starting in mid Sept.[/b] Unfortunately, you are less likely to be hired at this point because agencies rush to spend their hiring budget in the summer. They need to start new employees before the fiscal year ends Sept 30. Some hiring will still happen throughout the year but if you’re feeling burned out, you may want to give it a break until next spring/summer. [/quote] Dragged out ? How many weeks did the background check take ? (Appears to be less than 8 weeks.)[/quote]
