[quote=Anonymous]Yes. Knew no one. Got the job after one round of interviews. It was really, really the perfect job for me. When I saw it, I said to a friend "if I don't get this job, I'm never getting a job at X agency." Working there I had insight into the hiring process. Saw about 10 people get hired. Only one had any connections. One person that had connections (including experience at the agency and a recommendation from someone pretty high up at the agency) didn't get the job. Maybe it was just my agency, or the type of positions for which they were hiring (mostly lawyers, but a few other professionals), but connections really didn't seem to matter much at all. [/quote]
