[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been trying to get into Gov't tech but haven't been called for an interview. Upper 50s. Considering some certs.[/quote] Are you pivoting from commercial tech but with no certs? or trying to pivot into tech and think gov tech is the way to start? The reality is that until there is a budget (an actual budget, not a CR), there aren't going to be many gov tech job listings that aren't internal to an agency. So, assume no real hiring until february 2025. Also depending on the agency, clearing the HR hurdle as well as vet preference to make the cert can be difficult. Your resume needs to be redone to match the job listing, not cut and paste but very close. If something requires 5 years of Oracle experience, you likely will not make the cert by saying you have 5 years of database admin experience. If you are not being referred to the hiring manager, it's your resume tailoring that needs help, certs are not likely to help. [/quote]
