[quote=Anonymous]I appreciate the comment about how top managers sit in their spots for 20-25 years. That's very true of my agency. There is so little opportunity for upward mobility right now. When it becomes available, personal politics are everything. Qualifications are the least of it. I've seen agencies where office directors and deputy directors are much less qualified for their positions than their subordinates are. There is no transparency in hiring so you have no ability to plan for an upward move. If they want to bring a friend in, they just write the announcement to fit the friend and it's done. That's a prohibited personnel practice but it's how all hiring is done within the Fed govt.[/quote]
