[quote=Anonymous]I feel you, OP. It's time-consuming applying for those positions. And it just feels like it goes nowhere. It's not just that postings are tailored to favor internal candidates. A friend of mine applied as an outside candidate, but he knew someone on the inside who was able to look for his resume and make sure it got forwarded along. He got an interview but ended up not taking the job (for many other reasons). I know another person who was an outside candidate for a different agency but had the same situation (a friend on the inside). She got an interview and got the job, even though she had been out of the workforce for a very long time and, I'm certain, was not the most qualified and wouldn't have gotten an interview if she didn't know someone. I think it boils down to knowing someone who works at that agency. [/quote]
