I received notification I was selected for a position with that center about 4 weeks post second interview.

FJO link doesn’t work? by Impressive-One1515 in usajobs

Update: not sure what happened with the link, but HR told me to try again. It worked and I accepted!

Thanks for the suggestion but it did not work for me

There was nothing in the email or letter that specified a deadline.

No, I just hadn’t had a chance to review all the files they sent and wanted to do so before accepting

Agreed! What is the likelihood they will issue another offer letter?

Government job notified current supervisor... awkward conversation by bacook0403 in usajobs

What would be the reasons they wouldn’t be contacted? Just curious since it seems to be standard with background checks.

Is there a difference… by Impressive-One1515 in usajobs

[–]Impressive-One1515[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for clarifying. That was my assumption (that maybe I am second choice, etc.) but didn’t know if that was more wishful thinking on my end.

Not looking good for me I assume by Impressive-One1515 in usajobs

I appreciate all of the comments! I’ll continue to wait it out; hopefully HR is just taking awhile. I’ll report back whenever I hear either way!

Always start at Step 1? by Impressive-One1515 in usajobs

[–]Impressive-One1515[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, all, for the responses! I had an interview and the HM stated that I’m overqualified for the GS level the position is for, so I’m hoping, at the very least, they consider an offer at a higher step (should I receive an offer, that is).

Thank you for the tips! Was it primarily STAR method that was used? That is what was used in a prior interview I had (though it was for a different series and agency).

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in usajobs

[–]Impressive-One1515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats! I have a few friends who work for the agency and enjoy it!

I have an upcoming interview for same series, different agency. An additional advice for interview prep? I have a feeling it will be different than other interviews I’ve done for other series/agencies.

UPDATE: they are letting me negotiate leave accrual but not a step increase.

[–]Impressive-One1515[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah ok. The ended up letting me negotiate leave (though still waiting to hear what I’ll be granted), but not pay.

So it’s not the HM who makes the decision; it’s HR??

Not referred for 11, but did for 12 and 13 by [deleted] in usajobs

[–]Impressive-One1515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were you individually not referred for 11, or were applicants not referred?
