[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The federal government probably won’t be hiring many people for some time due to the pandemic. However, I am working at home full time as an attorney advisor for the Social Security Administration. Normally, attorneys in my office can telework from home for three to four days a week. I used to be a state prosecutor, but this is a better job for raising a family due to less stress and a regular schedule. I went to a top ten law school and we have many great attorneys in the office that want work life balance and to live in a rural area.

The Social Security Administration has hearing offices all over the country and you just need to be within a two-hour drive to work at an office (which is not that bad with three or four days at home). My hearing office is in a city of 100,000 people, but I live an hour away in a town of 10,000 people. Salary is okay for a rural area. I’m a GS-12 now and there is sometimes overtime on the weekends to bump your salary up. I could possibly move up to a GS-13 senior attorney advisor someday. Anything higher and I’d have to find a different federal attorney job. There is the possibility of becoming an Administrative Law Judge for the Social Security Administration one day and you sound like you might have a chance with a good law school and litigation experience.
