KSAs are random narratives that you filled out in the application. An application process that took an inordinate amount of time....whereas now, with the standard resume submission, the hiring process is shortened. My point in this [as KSAs obviously aren't terribly important to anyone who has not had to submit a KSA application] is that the federal hiring process can, and has been changed with positive impact.<br /><br />The same can, and should, be done with the firing process......to more easily cut federal employees who are not up to standard.<br /><br />"So nothing personal, but excuse me if I don't applaud obama or anyone else...."<br /><br />That's your prerogative.Constitutional Insurgenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03251746798758539951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5516627478339613810.post-68608526931945629772014-05-22T20:45:52.756-07:002014-05-22T20:45:52.756-07:00Oh, I didn't see your comment before I posted ...Oh, I didn't see your comment before I posted mine.<br />Great minds, Kid!<br />Can YOU describe to me what CI means about the KSA thing?Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15989573357446569262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5516627478339613810.post-77095472549436246172014-05-22T20:45:16.321-07:002014-05-22T20:45:16.321-07:00Do you know ONE FED EMPLOYEE lost his/her job duri...Do you know ONE FED EMPLOYEE lost his/her job during the sequester after Jay Carney predicted 750,000 would be laid off?<br />I believe I heard we've paid laid-off employees two BILLION dollars....and that their jobs were found to be completely redundant, anyway.
