We are the Invisible Spatula. We are the Grilluminati. We eat before and after dinner. We eat forever. And eventually... eventually we will lead them into the dining room.
Dear god, USAJobs is bound and determined to keep me from applying to anything. 90% of the positions in my area seem to require you to join the Army Reserves, and every single one of them redirects you to another website where you have to enter your information again and make another account. Not that this is particularly unusual in the exciting world of online employment applications. :sigh:

EDIT: It seems like all of them want a copy of your college transcript. How does that work? Do you apply like normal, and they ask for a sealed transcript afterwards, or do I have to physically send in a transcript and application to everything I want to apply to?

I've simply sent an unofficial electronic transcript. If they are interested in you, then you might want to order an official. If I had to order a transcript for each and every job I've applied to on USAJobs I would be out at least $1000 dollars.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I submitted a paper application once with a sealed transcript, but didn't get any response. Where's the best place to put an unofficial transcript on your profile? I didn't see any specific field for anything beyond what school you went to, but I may have missed something.
