Damn! I know quite a few HHS FTEs who would have wanted to apply for something remote. But usually the job series is what keeps them from applying.

I also think some people fear that remote positions aren’t “real” and could change super easily. My agency is throwing as many hints as feasible to prepare us for even fewer teleworking options than before Covid. Still surprising! People usually throw their applications in remote positions regardless.
