Interesting that the requisite education is a Bachelor’s degree and certificate. For some reason I assumed the HOs were attorneys.

Here's hoping they come up with a better name than "space force."

This looks like a great position. Do you (or anyone else) have any input on what it would be like to work as an attorney advisor for EOIR? It's obviously a very different position, but related to immigration law. I recently was offered an interview for an attorney advisor position. It is a lower GS level and does not have the option of moving up to a higher GS level within the position. I'm wondering if starting as an attorney advisor could lead to a higher level position elsewhere, or if one would likely get stuck there. I have thirteen years of litigation experience. The reason I would take it would be to learn a new area of law, but it is not a litigation position. Thanks in advance if anyone has input on this.

The Navy provides medical services for the Marines, and the Marines graciously agree to allow the Navy to provide launching vessels, fuel, and aircraft maintenance for their aircraft. Marines have always exercised fierce independence from the Navy.

I have a longer post somewhere on this board about this, based purely on a friend who works there, but suffice to say, my perception of EOIR is that is a more numbers/production quota-driven organization, with less independence for line attorneys since the work product you prepare is mostly for immigration judges or board members. Caveat again - this is just based on one person's perception offered to me. I don't think one would necessarily get stuck there. I've known people at EOIR who have moved to DHS and Justice for better paying positions, though the ones that come to mind spent a few years at EOIR at most. Just my anecdotal observations.

Thanks! Any idea of what this obscure, HR ish phrasing means---or is it an incantation: Legal, Governance, and Jurisprudence - Adjudication Legal, Governance, and Jurisprudence - Case Record Legal, Governance, and Jurisprudence - Hearings Love the locations. The skillset descriptions are a bit of a mind job.

Typical language when bureaucrats run the system and not lawyers.

My understanding with these jobs is that you could live anywhere as long as you flew to do the hearings in the assigned region. This posting, however, indicates that you have to live in the assigned region. I don’t think the previous announcement mentioned that. I’m not sure if that’s a change or if just wasn’t noted previously. I can’t realistically move to Colorado or Mississippi, so will pass this one up (and I didn’t even get referred last time, for reasons that escape me).

They work from home. They are assigned a region, and travel throughout it to do the hearings, but day-to-day work is from the house. It does look like you have to live in the assigned region, though.

It’s unclear what home office is. They work from home. They are assigned a region, and travel throughout it to do the hearings, but day-to-day work is from the house. It does look like you have to live in the assigned region, though. "Duty station is employee's residence located in the metropolitan statistical area or the micropolitan statistical area, as applicable, for which the successful candidate is selected."
So basically it's one of those "ya gotta live where you work " deals. But "micropolitan?" ---that's the real reason I keep in the applications day, to learn new phrases and jargon.
Wondering where that is to see what Zillow or Trulia give you for rental or buy in costs of real estate? Here's what OMB says which adds another layer of opacity:
The OMB defines a Micropolitan Statistical Area as one or more adjacent counties or county equivalents that have at least one urban core area of at least 10,000 population but less than 50,000, plus adjacent territory that has a high degree of social and economic integration with the core as measured by commuting ties."
What if it's a low degree of social & economic integration? A so-so, only integrate socially during county fairs kinda thang?
still looking for what Legal, Governance, and Jurisprudence - Adjudication
Legal, Governance, and Jurisprudence - Case Record
Legal, Governance, and Jurisprudence - Hearings
means.
Maybe i can create a job turning jargonese into English.

If I recall correctly, last time this position was advertised (for other locations), only people claiming veterans points were interviewed.
