Hello!

I just realized that I was supposed to take the exam before applying for Analyst I positions, I had assumed I would be invited to complete it after I had applied to positions because i misunderstood the inductions. I submitted an application today for a position I am really interested in, do you think it’s okay if I take the exam really soon as in sunday or monday? I heard the exam results are added right away is this true? I sent an email regarding this confusion as well. I’m a little scared.

Thanks!

Hello!

I’m just graduating with my masters and really want to go to into civil service, I think Analyst I is closest to my experience level and there seems to be a decent amount of positions open (though most are only hiring one candidate). I’m just curious if anyone knows roughly how many people apply for these positions? I’m considering just applying for as many as I can in the next month and just keep checking as they’re posted but this is of course reliant on me doing really well on the exam lol.

Hey guys!

So i’m kind of a mess career-wise. I’m 22F and i’m finishing a masters at a european university but i’m an American. My area of study is within econ but it’s more policy/theory than tactical so I don’t have a ton of coding skills though i’ve taken classes on it. I really wanted to work in civil service most of my life but now i’m terrified due the recent job market that I just won’t be able to get anything. I tend to do really well in academic competitions but when i compete for jobs… it’s a different story. I’m wondering if I should start looking into getting training in something that’s more likely to lead to a career? For example something in healthcare like radiology tech or ultra-sound tech. My original plan was to spend a few years working and then decide if i want to go to law school or maybe get a PHD and become a professor but i’m just so scared of the current climate that i’m not sure if i’ll be able to find a job in anything related to civil service or NGOs because of budget cuts and hiring freezes.

For clarification when I was originally deciding on my major i was considering doing nursing and going into something like obgyn nursing but I decided to go into econ/politics because i was just more passionate about that and more hopeful about job prospects 5 years ago lol.

I’m moving back home from Europe at the end of summer and I would really like to find some other motogp fans here! I’m not sure if there’s already a community of fans in the area or not but i’d like to get involved if there is.
