[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I must agree with pp that the hiring priorities of this ainistration is to hire minorities and women. My agency has a memo stating that this is a priority. There is an effort to have the workforce reflect the makeup of our society. White males are not in a good position to get a job with the government. [/quote] You realize that priority is not a mandate? That last four senior professional hires in my agency have been White males and I know that a number of minorities and womoan applied for the positions. The hiring officer for all four is a Black male. But I will concede the point that run of the mill White male candidates no longer have the advantage they once had. Interestingly enough, the underperformers in my division are mostly the older White male professional employees with a lot of senority. In my agency it is those guys who are gumming things up and tying up positions. [/quote]
