I see ads everyday on Yahoo concerning the economy. Does anyone think federal government jobs will be cut as a result of how the economy is now? If so, what types of jobs do you think will be cut? I have been concerned about this for some time now.

Top Answer:

Yes. And it's a shame because stupid people who run this so called 'economy' are thinking they're gonna get free imports from different countries. Which is why we're so down in business.

Idiots aren't paying back other debts from other countries. And for those who put a minus under this answer.. You do not understand what is going on with this economy of ours.

I would imagine most government agencies are the same, but also correct me if I'm wrong there. Thank you for the help

I received an 82 for a position in the federal government. I know that in academics that's "average," but how does that play out in the federal government?
The position I applied for was the HUD Federal Career Intern Program. I'm not sure how competitve it is. They have 3 openings where I live and 23 in other states. The position was only open for 3 weeks so I'm hoping not many people applied (especially since it was over the Christmas/NYE holidays)

Top Answer:

Depends on who else applies. For the more competitive positions, you usually need a score of 90 or better to make the first cut and get an interview.
