Does anyone have intel about the mass Attorney hiring at the IRS ? The announcements closed end of September, but not sure if they are going to start the whole process right away or hold off for Congressional budget approvals etc... Thanks!

The announcements closed end of September, but not sure if they are going to start the whole process right away or hold off for Congressional budget approvals etc... Thanks! Great question, I also applied to this posting and am curious as to the IRS hiring process, particularly because final location selection is up to management's discretion. But it certainly looks like a great opportunity and the promotional potential (GS-14) is spectacular. I just created a thread on the fedsoup forum asking a similar question. I noticed that I received a referral on another application (with a different agency) after the most recent shutdown threat was narrowly avoided, so you're right they might be waiting on that. Hopefully, we'll both hear something on it soon! *fingers crossed* |

I love it, Foggy! INFERNAL IS RIGHT. At least they're honest about it! |

A first for me--touching in a way. I received, for the first time in a few years of applying, a personal rejection letter. It mentioned details which showed it was a one-off.
Otherwise, federal agencies generally don't even send timely rejection notes, other than a rather cold "this is to notify you the position has been filled."
So any readers who are in the decision making chain--give a little thought to at least a 1)timely 2) polite rejection letter. Especially in the era of the computer, it's verging on the unforgiveable to claim you are too busy. What, to pull up all the emails of applicants and send them a polite, well written "no?'
So if you wonder why the peasants in Applicantville seem a little testy in their comments, could be we have the feeling we've been mushroomed--after giving much personal information, we are kept in the dark and covered with stuff. Not exactly a "wow" experience.

California State ALJ II position posted. Based in the Los Angeles office but again these are statewide positions. This particular position is in my unit, and is a great place to work with great leadership. I had a conversation with someone on this board who insisted to me that CA State ALJ II positions are only filled by existing CA ALJs, but I know this NOT to be true. If the best candidate is not from within, that is the person they will hire. www.calcareers.ca.gov/CalHrPublic/Jobs/JobPosting.aspx?JobControlId=282513Closing date is 12/24/2021. |

I'm perplexed by this "entry level attorney" job here, at DHS USCIS: www.usajobs.gov/job/629753900The posting says "You qualify at the GS-12 level if you: have graduated from law school and are licensed by your state’s Bar or will soon graduate from law school no later than July 1, 2022 and expect to be licensed by your state’s Bar within one year of law school graduation. ... This announcement has been amended to state the following: Applicants must possess a J.D. degree obtained from an ABA-accredited law school on or after January 1, 2020, or be on track to obtain such a degree no later than July 1, 2022." Really? so you have to be totally green, no one who graduated before 2020? Because honestly I'd consider a GS12 just to get my foot in the door even though I graduated ten years ago. I'm wondering if this is a hard requirement for only newly minted lawyers, or more of a preference, because why not consider lawyers with five or ten years in? Thoughts? |

It doesn't necessarily make sense but it's a hard requirement not a preference. It's bolded in the announcement. If you apply for this, the HR specialist that reviews applications is just going to see your JD before 2020 and disqualify you. Your application package won't even be seen by any interviewers or decisionmakers. It's basically legal age discrimination honestly.

Wow, what a load of crap that is. I know attys with decades of experience come in as 9s and 11s. But they will pay more for someone with no experience. OK, whatever. Are new law degrees better somehow? |
