[env-trinity] Job opportunity- Project Coordination Specialist

[Joshua Allen]

Tom & Robin,

Thanks for the job posting and notification. Though after spending an hour
to set up a usajobs.gov 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.

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!
