[quote=Anonymous]I applied via USAJOBS for a federal position in another part of my agency, and made the cert list. The next day, I called a friend who worked with the hiring manager and she asked him about the search. He told her they had already selected an internal candidate, so I figured that was the end of it. That was a couple of weeks ago. This morning, I got an invitation to interview tomorrow. I wasn't expecting that, since the hiring manager explicitly told my friend that they had selected someone. I was wondering whether anybody had advice on how to prepare, that is specific to this situation? It's a panel interview, if that matters. I assume there is a strong internal candidate and I need to somehow justify why I as a stranger would be a better choice than that person. Thank you very much.[/quote]
