<div>Tom & Robin,</div><div><br></div>Thanks for the job posting and notification. Though after spending an hour to set up a <a href="http://usajobs.gov">usajobs.gov</a> profile and answering all the questions, I was told by the system that I don't qualify, as the position is only open to current federal employees and veterans, and I have no hiring preference. Even with a masters degree in Public Adminstration, B.S. in Natural Resources Planning, and experience working as a planner on Trinity River restoration for Trinity County. <div>
<br></div><div>Just how does one get their foot in the door with the federal government? It's a shame really, as qualified applicants, such as myself who is knowledgeable about the program, history, and people involved, just can't get past the system. In this economic climate, people like me are really in need of employment, especially meaningful work, and looking for opportunity that is closed off to the general public is disheartening. Good luck on filling this position though!<div>
