[quote=Anonymous]I work for a small federal agency. A division I am interested in transferring to just posted a job listing. A friend of mine told me I should not alert the hiring official (who knows me even if she's not necessarily familiar with the work I've done here) that I intend to apply because that could be seen as unduly influencing the process. My friend says she's seen people be denied jobs for that reason. Is she right? Are there other reasons I should or shouldn't speak to the hiring official? Should I wait first to see if I made the HR cert? As it is, I fear the awkwardness of being rejected by people I interacted with regularly and/or having my boss (whom I like) know I tried to switch.[/quote]
