I had to return back to this post. It is with great pleasure, that i am happy to announce that I received my TJO!!!!!! So grateful and thankful. God bless you Armand for helping so many people.
Congrats on the new job! Thank you for the kind words.
Thank you sir!!!
9 months. Thats how long it took my wife from submission of application to orientation.
Thank you for this.
ARMAND! I was offered a position today thanks to your advice! Thank you so much for all you do. Best advice for me was to just keep applying! So much gratitude for your videos.
Congrats on the job offer!!
I'm academically good but get nervous with the interviews. Could you guide me on entry level IRS job without much interview hassle?@@armandcuret1
I'm so thankful for catching this video. I began to lose hope since I applied for a job and have remained on referred to hiring manager for almost 6 months. Thanks Armand and thanks to those for sharing their stories.
Thank you.
Just got my notice saying I was referred for the position I applied for at the VA hospital!! Waiting for that Interview call!! Great Video great knowledge on the process!!
Congrats and good luck!
Hi all! I interviewed for a position last Monday and was told yesterday that a selection was made… hoping that I will get a TJO this upcoming week!! I hope everyone is remaining hopeful, I’ve been trying for a long time and hoping this one comes to pass!
I received my TJO today!!!! 🙌🏾
@@jcberb I know the feeling! I have been referred then not selected, referred again and finally, this happened! Keep applying while you wait! I also called civilian personnel center at the base for updates and they were great with giving basic information!
@@jcberb yes! Definitely call! Best of luck and keep hope alive! When you get your call for an interview and job selection, come back and update the post!!
@Lys, hi Lys, how many interviews did you do? And did you interview virtually and/or in person?
@@Rey-fm6pi hi!! I did one, I did it over the phone.
Good video, however, most of the jobs posted on USJOBS are pretty much taken. Unfortunately, it is who you know for most of those positions. Current jobs are posted because of legal reasons, I have talked to several ppl who are GS12 and they all say the same regarding getting a job.
I applied for a position at the beginning of the month, I have been receiving periodic messages from multiple locations associated with the agency I applied for, then I got sent an invite about a week or 2 after I applied to attend a human resources event, I went and they showed me how to get selected. It has been a month since my application, I was sent an email 3 days ago telling me to call and set up an interview. It's going much faster than I expected.
It's always "referred to hiring manager" and never any calls. Next will be you're not selected. Then keep applying and reapplying, and it's a repeat that gets tiring.
The second example said " not referred"
Good catch. Sometimes the system doesn't update or updates incorrectly on USAjobs and you still end up with an interview or job offer. Not normal but it can happen. Thanks for watching!
I was referred 9 months ago and still waiting for an interview. Also, I was interviewed for another job 8 months ago and never heard back from them.
Thanks for watching Jay. Unfortunately, this happens often. There is not usually a forcing mechanism that ensures HR communicates with the applicant. The best thing you can do is keep applying if you want a government job. Nothing is certain until you start your first day (EOD).
Question... I applied on USAJobs for a position that closed 11/30... received an email this morning that I was referred and also that it is a direct hire position which I did not know. My status on USAJobs says Processed... Is this a good thing and what exactly does direct hire mean for me? Thank you
Love your video. I’m in IT. I got a tentative job offer last month. I have completed all pre-requirements. HR said to me what date is best for onboarding on Oct 11th. But I haven’t received a FJO yet? When should I expect to see the FJO?
Congrats on your job offer!
You should have the final job offer any day now. Usually it comes right after the background check and once the EOD is decided. You can always email the HR person and ask.
Thanks for watching!
@@armandcuret1 thank you! It has been 10 days since they mentioned to me about processing through with the FJO. I’m going to wait until Tuesday afternoon to say something about the process.
Go private sector and work half the time for the same income
Hello! Do they always check your credit score?
Is is frowned upon to apply to the same position on multiple occasions a friend told me that if you keep apply6they will automatically turn your application down
I agree with your friend. Keep on applying! Some Job annoucements receive 200 applications or more. It is not frowned upon. Good luck!
Great video! When would you advise a recent graduate, currently working in the private sector, to apply a year after beginning to work in corporate?
A recent graduate can skip corporate/private sector all together if they desire. It really comes down to what that graduate wants. You can always apply.
The real question is, what location and GS Grade is the goal?
@@armandcuret1 I was looking for positions in the Midwest area. I have a degree in engineering and I believe they start out at GS-6 or GS-7.
@@FifaPro98x To qualify on education alone a Bachelors degree typically starts at GS-7 and a Masters degree starts at GS-9. If you have any relevant experience in addition to the degree, you can start at a higher GS grade. (There are people in high GS grades that have No college and qualify on experience only). You can apply immediately or wait until you have more experience if you want to compete for a higher GS grade.
Great video! When we get a tentative offer, can we (always) ask for a higher step or is there a risk in not been selected because of this? Or, at least, they will only deny it and offer the same step?
Yes, if you are new to the federal government then you can negotiate your step level. If they deny it, you can still accept the job offer at step 1.
I have one more question!
So I heard back from HR. They said they’re waiting for AFPC to review the firm offer. Do you have an idea of how long that process takes?
Once selectee completes Onboarding, the staffing specialist reviews and approves to submit final to AFPC. AFPC will then send the selectee a firm offer with an Entrance on Duty date (EOD).
This can depend on what level of background check was required for the position. If it was a low or medium risk position it shouldn't take longer than two weeks on average.
So what happens if my salary is slightly less than that of the federal job? Is it recommended not to negotiate salary?
You can still negotiate salary if you are new to the federal government.
In November, I applied for a GS internship/fellowship program. I have received a tentative offer and did my e-QIP and a fingerprint scan. It's been two weeks today since I did my fingerprints. Should I be worried that I haven't received an official offer yet, or is it normal to go over two weeks?
I do not think you need to be worried. It can sometimes take months between a tentative job offer and a final job offer. I do think it would be appropriate to email your HR point of contact and ask for a status update or ask if they need anything else from you. Congrats and good luck!
@@armandcuret1 yes sir, you were a hundred percent right. I checked my email this morning and they notified me that they are preparing my final offer. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't unusual. Look forward to more videos in the future! Thank you for your support!
Congratulations on the final offer! Thanks for watching and the kind words.
@@evanmott8303 how long did it take for you when you received your tentative offer to your firm offer? If you don’t mind me asking I am in this same position.
Thank you
@@tyrasinclair9570 I would say about a month. Are you apply for the logistics fellowship program? Or something else
I did not interview was sent a TJO and onboarding process is that a good sign?
Yes, that is a great sign! Sometimes a job offer without interview can happen when applying to GS-11 or below positions or critically needed jobs. Congrats!
How long does it take after accepting the TJO and completing the onboarding process?
I completed everything online for onboarding process the same day I accepted TJO however I haven't heard anything back.
I was referred for an assessment but the listing says they won’t reveal the results from the assessment?? I also read that the results stay attached to your profile for 12months. It’s so hard just staying in limbo
I know that feeling. It would be helpful to at least know your own results. I hope you get the job!
Armand accepted a tentative offer and submitted the required questionnaires and requirements (DD214, background check form etc) as requested, what’s next? Will they call? How will I know my starting date?
Congrats! After the tentative job offer the agency's security office usually conducts a background check, credit check, tax withholding forms and other employment documents. Depending on the clearance level or public trust level for your job, the wait can vary. But you can always email or call the HR Specialist and ask for a status update.
@@armandcuret1 thanks for the timely response..keep feeding us with great content..
@@drvenhrd46 Thanks for watching!
I interviewed June 28 and my references were contacted July 28. It's been roughly a month since then and I am getting crickets. The hiring manager contacting my references seemed pretty enthusiastic about me. Is there anything I can do to get further information?
James, I would email the same person who setup the interview and ask them for a status update on the position. Having your references contacted is a good sign but I would also keep applying.
Thanks for watching!
I have applied 25 times, I have heard nothing. I have a very diverse background in aviation along with degrees and flight safety training. Its been 5 months and crickets.
I was interviewed back in Dec 9th 2022 and just today got the notice of referred (Jan 17th 2023) shouldn't have i gotten that notice first? And how long after an interview because it's way over a month
Yes, you should have. Probably a HR Specialist forgot to mark it as referred in December so they are just now fixing it. If it has been over a month since your interview and you have not heard back, I would e-mail the same person who setup your interview and ask them for a status update.
Thanks for watching!
@armandcuret1 I did ask that question at the interview, actually I sent an email because I forgot to ask it during and this was the answer: Good morning and thank you for your question. Human Resources will contact all applicants with the next steps of the recruitment process.
Regards,
So should I still send an email inquiring?
I got was told in my interview that i got the job then last week i got my tjo. I accepted it but dont know the step pay. Should I negotiate the step before getting the final offer? Plus i would need to know the dates for moving?
Yes. Negotiate your step level before accepting the final job offer. Before your final offer you will discuss EOD (Entrance on duty) dates with HR.
@@armandcuret1 thank you.
What is meaning of application reviewing
It means the time that the HR Specialist at the federal agency is reading reviewing the job appliciations to determine who will get referred to the hiring manager.
@@armandcuret1 Thank you
I have a referred email still pending any news it’s been 2 weeks. If the job posted was closed and on the referred email it’s says if you were NOT referred to apply again and it showed another selection submittal dates. I WAS referred so do I just wait or reapplying to same job posting for the next application cut off dates?
Do you really need a Cover Letter?
Only if the job announcement specifically requests it (under "required documents") but I have found that rather rare. The majority of the time you do not need a cover letter.
I'm Indian sir can I apply for this job ?
