There's no such thing as too much information when it comes to preparing for a federal government career search, and there's no such thing as too small of a contribution. A local profile of an HR manager in Georgia offering a class on the subject contains vital info for anyone interested in a federal career. He notes that while many military job seekers feel they're passed over despite being qualified, possibly victims of a "good ol' boys' network", the fact is that their resumes are letting them down. Detail is the key for a federal position. He explains how to think of a resume in these terms - include only what's going to reinforce how qualified you are for this specific position, not accomplishments you might see as bigger, which aren't as relevant. Remember the idea of creating these alternative resumes when meeting federal employers!
