[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you for all of these replies and great advice! For various reasons I've decided not to go after the fed position, but appreciate all of the advice here. [/quote] Can you elaborate??[/quote] One of the reasons is that, after more discussions, it's looking like the position would pay substantially less than what I'm paid now. Given the benefits I have now, including a high level of flexibility and telework options (which I think are not a given in government), I'm not convinced that the pension is worth it. Also, there are a number of private sector firms that I would love to work for, and I want to keep aiming for these. Going after this fed position felt like making decisions based on fear rather than what I want to do. [/quote]
