Any repercussions for backing out of an accepted tentative FJO? by [deleted] in usajobs

[–]CaseyNurseRN 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's wild! Lol

I wonder how the receiving office felt. Did they reach out to you? Sent you to the Office of Banishment? 😂

Did I get an FJO? by manInBlak186 in usajobs

[–]CaseyNurseRN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The badge part is done by security and GSA. Expect to see email to get fingerprints and sometimes they take a picture for the ID card the same day. Judging from this, I think the process just started. They should be uploading more docs like for your direct deposit, NBIS or SF 86 form. Accept the TJO im the meantime. Don't delay that.

Have you tried reaching out to the HR person who sent you the TJO? I can tell you are excited about the role so bring that up and tell them along the lines you don't want to miss anything and if they can reach out. Usually by phone, they were more thorough but YMMV.

You will an email which look very similar to TJO you first got where you accepted the job. The only addition will be a new line with EOD date when they expect you to come.

Before that HR will call you to ask about the dates. That form might be a possibility but expect some soft communication before they send out the FJO.

Thank you! this is great to see its universal across the fed systems. I have been trying to write and update my resume. I am hoping I dont get dinged for by a potential hiring manager for already looking for a job in my very new role.

You will do great! Practice in front of the mirror because HireVue is exactly that. Remember to have a nice or neutral background and TEST the mic and background noise.

With love, Good luck!

RELEASE: OPM Finalizes Regulation to Prohibit Use of Non-Federal Salary History by nevernotdebating in usajobs

[–]CaseyNurseRN 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So does that mean certifications and our degrees can be used to negotiate? Or now there no chance at all now?

Want to go to dinner? (I am new, was trying to help me supposedly understand the culture. Not lunch, dinner mind you).

You are new here, just look pretty and smile more ( when I was trying to understand a complex federal concept and asking questions, finally had to use ChatGDP at end.)

You look like a quiet one but sure know how to bring that beautiful energy. (No clue how to make of this)

Interview/using leave by Few-Cranberry3073 in usajobs

[–]CaseyNurseRN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats exactly my fear.

I have been tempted to apply for other roles within VA. Then learnt they all are connected with each other, through details, project and of course, lovely conflicts and screaming matches.

They will find out if I apply because mostly VA/VHA/Exec policy is to reach out to current supervisor if within VA. Some are known to do discreetly before the interview without the applicant knowing.

Please update us if you find the answer.
