It's been less than two days since Barack Obama became President-elect. And with that comes transitions and new jobs. The Washington Post reports:
If President-elect Barack Obama makes good on his campaign promises, the federal government may be headed for a major shakeup, including the reassignment of many middle-managers, a sharp reduction in the number of outside contracts, and new performance standards for workers.His "Blueprint for Change" describes proposals which may or may not be embraced and have implications for possible jobs.
Where can someone go if they want to be considered for a non-career position in the Obama administration? Change.gov is the website to indicate one's interest. Complete the online form, and the site promises an email in the near future detailing application processes. The site also has a section on service with calls to expand Peace Corps and AmeriCorps.
And what of the lobbyists? "Aftershocks Hit K Street" sums up the transitions taking place within Washington lobbying firms and with business trade groups.
