MInutes ago, Ed posted on another thread that offers have now begun for the new ALJ group. I created this thread as a unitary place in which those selected can post their offers. Good luck to one and all!  |

I was offered, and accepted Fresno, CA. A colleague was offered San Jose, Ca., and I think she accepted, too.

Quite frankly; I am shaking in my boots. Like the dog who chased the car, and caught it. Keep your stick on the ice; we're all in this together.

Got my call today, prefer not to say where. This has been a real 28 month oddessy. I tested in 07. Was disqualified for missing info due to reasons beyond my control. Appealed and allowed to finish my application. Received a poor score. While waiting I made the first two certs but not selected (too low). Won my appeal this spring. Made this current cert and got selected. For all those out there, continue to hope. It can happen.

I received a call around 1:30 offering an ALJ post on East coast. I also had a bit of a longer road like "dazed" but I feel good about my location. Yogi

Yogi,
Would you mind letting us know where on the East coast you're going. I'd like to cross a location off my list if yours was one of my choices. Thanks
BTW - a friend was offered Queens, NY.

No job offer here yet. I thought the questions for the job interview were fair and job oriented. Wish I had done better on them. The process is a humbling experience. Please accept the following as congratulations for those of you who have received an offer and as an expression of hope for those who have not.
CALL OF THE LOON
THERE’S A LOON THAT CALLS ON THE FAR NORTH WIND
IN THE LAND OF UNBROKEN SOD
WHERE EACH STAR’S A JEWEL IN A LILY PAD POOL
AND YOUR SOUL REACHES OUT FOR GOD.
THERE’S A PEACE TO BE FOUND IN THAT AWESOME SOUND
LIKE NO PEACE I’VE EVER KNOWN
WHERE THE WAVES LAP UP AND THE WILD GRASS WHISPERS
AND THE BIG BIRDS FLY FOR HOME.
YES THERE’S A LOON THAT CALLS EVEN THE FAR NORTH WIND
DOES IT BEACON US TO START
A NEW LIFE THAT’S IN TUNE WITH THE TIDES AND THE MOON
AND DEEP PEACE THAT DOTH LAST IN THE HEART?
IF WE HEED THAT CALL ON THE COLD DARK NIGHT
WHEN THE WIND WHISTLES UNDER OUR DOOR
AND GUIDE OUR SLED TOWARD THE BRIGHTEST STAR
TRYIN’ TO REACH IT JUST ONCE MORE
THE CHINOOKS WILL WARM AND THE ICE WILL CRACK
THE GEESE WILL HONK NORTH AGAIN
AND THE FLOWERS WILL BLOOM NEAR THE RAILROAD TRACK
BY THE MARSH THAT THE LOONS NEST IN.
COME WITH ME MY FRIEND AND ANSWER THAT CALL
BE BOLD, GIVE UP YOUR FRIGHT
TOGETHER WE’LL FLY WITH THE FAR NORTH WIND
AND THE LOONS THAT CALL IN THE NIGHT.
