[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hearing a long term Fed doesn't even have a resume makes me go hmmm. I always had one. Do you even have LinkedIn to screen scrape and use for chatGPT?
Make one. Put your publications and presentations in a section. Put your software skills in a section. [/quote]

What?! Feds don’t use linked in. Because it doesn’t help at all in job searches or applications.

I am a fed and I do have a resume but it’s 5 years old since that was the last time I applied for a job. I’m in my dream job currently and hadn’t even thought of applying elsewhere. My entire sub agency loves working with me too and thinks I’m excellent at my job. [/quote]

A lot of feds had an attitude that they didn't need to think about being generally employable/able to find something new if they needed to. What's happening now is unprecedented, so I'm not arguing you should have been prepared for this crazy set of events.

But even before this, it kept a lot of people in jobs that were no longer good, because they didn't know how to find anything else.

Things like being on LinkedIn, keeping an updated resume, and also thinking about what you can do at or outside your job to stay employable are good ideas for everyone. [/quote]
