Federal government recruitment and hiring is becoming more efficient and effective! In May, President Obama signed a memorandum stating: “To deliver the quality services and results the American people expect and deserve, the federal government must recruit and hire highly qualified employees, and public service should be a career of choice for the most talented Americans. Yet the complexity and inefficiency of today’s federal hiring process deters many highly qualified individuals from seeking and obtaining jobs in the federal government.”
Some of the steps being taken to reach this goal include the elimination of the lengthy application processes, reduction of the time that it takes to hire, and greater involvement by managers in the hiring process.
The VA Hiring Reform Taskforce is responding to this mandate by working to make job announcements shorter and easier to understand. The Taskforce, led by Annie Spiczak, Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Human Resources Policy and Planning, has developed an intranet web site — http://vaww.va.gov/HiringReform — to provide you with information and answer your questions about hiring reform. Whether you are a Veteran, Hiring Manager, HR Professional, or Applicant, the Hiring Reform Web Site will provide you with tips and tools to guide you through the hiring process. This comprehensive Web site includes step-by-step instructions and links that will walk you through the many twists and turns of the hiring process.
