As a companion to the new <a href= “http://govcentral.monster.com/benefits/2457-getting-hired-as-a-first-timer”>Getting Hired as a First Timer guide, these interactive quizzes have been designed to help you gauge whether or not you have learned enough to start aggressively applying for government jobs.

Many job seekers do not receive any feedback on their resume before using it to apply for jobs. You aren’t expecting to get any feedback or resume advice from the agency you’re applying to, are you? If you don’t want your first feedback to be, “You didn’t get the job”, take this quiz.

You’ve may be a master of resume creation – but will your interpersonal skills and intellect be impressive enough to get you the job? Take this quiz to see if you’re ready to meet face to face with potential employers.

    Account Removed

    I have a Master's in Accounting and Financial Management GPA 3.6, BA in Finance GPA 3.68. Currently employed as a Federal Grant Auditor for a state agency. Have worked as a Tax Auditor for another state agency, and have worked as a Mortgage Examiner for yet another state agency. I am currently studying for my CFE, which I hope to have completed by the end of the year 2008.
    I would like to know where I can get my resume reviewd and perhaps updated using the current lingo necessary for a federal job. I have a resume but it never gets me anywhere when it comes to the Feds. I would like to be a Federal Auditor before I have too many years with the state wherein I woul have to consider making the choice to settle and be "vested".

    Thanks
