[quote=Anonymous]Remember to be mindful not to offend Fed lawyers. Sometimes, your greatest risk is that the reviewing or hiring attorneys will be put off by professional choices you've made that are different from theirs. Most feds I know are terrific, but you only need to piss off one and you may not get a job. Find a thread in your personal and employment histories that can outline why you are on a path to becoming a said, why it is your mission, and why you want to stay there once you arrive. Do not tell even your Fed attorney friends if you have any ambivalence about working for the government, or let on that you are pretty much looking for any job. They will not want to vouch for you or help you if they think you may bail when a better job comes along, or that you will give your future colleagues the impression you are better than they are.[/quote]
