5.0 out of 5 stars I should have had a copy of this book!
All would-be office-seekers should read this book, and then they will not be disappointed, as I was. Take a tip from me, Charles Guiteau-- don't base your hopes of a cushy patronage position on a limp andshake from somebody's brother-in-law. Use this book to help you prepare a resume, make the right calls, see the right people, and get that Federal position you want!

Read this book to find a federal job but not necessarily to get a federal job. The book emphasizes that the odds of success hinge primarily on the "hidden" job market, ie. jobs that are essentially internally pre-ordained. It does not give substantial or pragmatic advice on how to overcome this obstacle, such as: what are the likely venues for networking with federal personnel; how exactly does one arrange informational interviews with federal personnel; what techniques have succeeded for other applicants, etc. While the book does have information on locating and applying for jobs, most of it is found easily on the Internet.
