Who cares about GPA?
That's just to make it harder....
All they want is experience...

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

What good is a quiz if you are not allowed to find out which questions you missed and what makes the top %?

after all this all I was told was what I already knew,also your system needs a bit of tweaking there are areas if you put unemplyoed that it asks silly questions about what do you think of unemployed,etc.
Then after the revolving door your system says you are this or that its partly correct mostly otherwise.
Is there anyplace on the web within Goverment that career seekers can have any hope especially the older worker?
