We have a new work schedule out and I am number 1 on the part time bid. I have just been advised that I will not be allowed to pick the schedule that I want because I am no longer considered qualified. I have to go to class to become qualified and that class is currently full and I am waitlisted. I am trying to work some shenanigans to get into the class before the new work schedule takes place. Not sure if I will be successful.

Two on-line applications tomorrow and then the weekend figuring out the essay questions for a GS-14 postion with questions like "Provide specific examples that describe your ability to explain technical concepts and complex issues in a convincing manner, negotiate with others, and you ability to facilitate and influence solution with a diverse internal or external audience."

In Fed-speak, this is called "leadership and influence". ;)

The Feds make things so dang complicated and technical, one has to be an effective communicator. I even had to take a federal course called "leadership and influence". Do you know your Myers-Briggs categorization?

Thanks, I desperately need it. God I hate engineering.

I read that question as "How well can you BS people with a smile on your face?". |

Most people do know the MB cat.. but they don't talk about it as it will get them the :rolleyes:
* I can make immediate decisions scrutinized by the public when necessary; as a borderline introvert, non-sensitive decisions get appropriate time. * I take lessons learned seriously and incorporate those into future decisions, * I gather information when appropriate from various public / non-public sources using sound logic, * I will handle any problem when it arises, even if never imagined. When I now think of the essay's "provide specific examples", I could write pages by prompting myself with those statements (without ever saying "myers-briggs, personailty, etc.). |
