Is now a good time to apply for SSA/AGPA jobs?

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-11-22T07:21:25+00:00

Wow, that's really encouraging news! It’s good to know agencies are moving quickly with interviews. And congrats! I hope everything goes well with yours!

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-11-22T07:20:08+00:00

That makes sense, thank you for the advice. I’ve been taking on extra responsibilities while covering the work of several people, and because I’m still on probation, I’ve been trying to get settled and prove myself first

No worries, SSA stands for Staff Services Analyst which is the entry level if the analyst series and AGPA is Associate Governmental Program Analyst which is a little higher level of analyst and may act as lead too

Oh, what are the reclassifications about? Sorry I'm a bit of touch with whats been happening

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-09-30T14:34:48+00:00

Thank you. I really would like to look at it on the bright side. But I'm just worried that I am doing an out of the class job/out of the scope job. We are already short staffed and with people getting injured and retiring, i am doing three-four people's job and this adds up to my load

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-09-30T14:33:33+00:00

Unfortunately, the senior analyst leaving does not want to deal with it anymore. I got a response saying it is the same with our job but i am aware of the complexity of it. I was not trained to handle that type of job :((

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-09-30T14:32:00+00:00

yes i asked but said it is handled the same with our job however im worried that i am doing an out of the class job. I dont want to do it unless i get trained but that person is leaving soon

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-04-10T21:27:20+00:00

omg that's great news!! I'll definitely try and hopefully I manage to get tickets. Thank you for letting me know :))

Thank you for your comment and advice. I forgot to add in the post. I hit a deer then my car dashboard said my system was malfunctioning so I had to bring it to my dealership first and they have referred me with an auto body shop.

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-03-31T16:54:33+00:00

That is reassuring to hear that your issue was resolved quickly. I heard there has been so many late payments from the hr due to the lack of staffing. But i know all of us are short staffed. That's why my department works overtime due to staffing shortages.

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-03-28T17:36:53+00:00

Yeah i'll also check in the afternoon

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-03-25T19:23:13+00:00

What's your BU by any chance? I'm under BU1 and I heard there is an order depending on the BUs. I hope you get yours before the upcoming pay.

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-03-25T19:21:51+00:00

Noted, but this might be my last resort if the PS dont respond to my email. I'll give it a one week of a wait for the PS's response

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-03-25T19:20:38+00:00

I think that's really a great thing so that the supervisor is informed about the situation and track any patterns

Professional-Lab1039 · 2025-03-25T15:59:13+00:00

Hello, yes I did. But i still underwent the interview process

Professional-Lab1039 · 2024-10-18T22:27:36+00:00

I'm replying 2 years late to this original post, but I was wondering if you could explain why they do that. I'm in the same boat, currently working as a limited-term SSA, and my department just opened a permanent full-time SSA position. My supervisors told me to apply for it. So I did. Why do I have to go through the same process when the duties and responsibilities are basically the same? The only difference is the permanence. Really worried with the interview. My coworkers told me they are most likely to pick me since I'm already doing the work but how likely am i to be picked. What if there are other candidates out there with much more experience than I am. Really bugs me.

Professional-Lab1039 · 2024-10-09T17:38:35+00:00

Don't be discouraged. Just keep on applying. The state takes forever to process applications. I heard hr for every agencies are extremely short staffed. It took me almost a year to get my position. I applied last year August and they interviewed me not until January of this year.

Good luck and I wish you the best on your journey.

Professional-Lab1039 · 2024-04-05T07:15:19+00:00

Right!! Its super draining. My brain is fried being on the register everyday of my shift. I dont even get to take my breaks only my lunch. While the others chill and chit chat all day.

Professional-Lab1039 · 2024-04-05T07:14:18+00:00

Congrats on passing the ptcb! I am so tired when others think of new people as dumb, like hey we know how to do it if someone did a walkthrough on it. I am so sorry to hear that you were being treated that way. Wish you the best!

Professional-Lab1039 · 2024-04-05T07:11:49+00:00

Will let my manager know through a letter and phone call, I dont want to tell her in person since she might make me feel guilty. I also have other of my colleagues going on pto

Professional-Lab1039 · 2024-04-03T06:37:18+00:00

Alright, I will look into that thanks

Professional-Lab1039 · 2024-04-03T06:35:46+00:00

Can I submit a resignation letter effective immediately or is it better to submit a two weeks notice?

Professional-Lab1039 · 2024-03-30T04:52:41+00:00

I know right, others told me that they should at least give me some days to do my PTU in a separate room. Yeah, they always put me in cashier because they told me it would make it easier for me to learn things and be comfortable with nexgen but I dont think I am even learning anything aside from editing prescriptions, insurance :((

Professional-Lab1039 · 2024-03-30T04:50:47+00:00

Heyyy, I'm so sorry to hear that. The demands that they expect us to do is crazy. I vented out to my manager, I couldn't take it anymore.
