[quote=Anonymous]I've seen a lot of the things mentioned on here as well. I've been with an agency for about 6 years, after 7 in biglaw. If I were a biglaw attorney applying for federal jobs, I would just do whatever I can to show interest, knowledge, and experience relevant to the specific office and position. And just be mindful of the fact that, at least in my office, we have quite a few career feds who are going to be sensitive to your demeanor and reasons for applying. I know others in my office get down on candidates when it's clear they just want or need out of biglaw, and/or feel that we would be lucky to have them by virtue of their biglaw experience. Federal hiring is such a slog, no one wants to invest time hiring and developing someone who is just using this as a temporary landing spot.[/quote]
