New USAJobs Website

Anybody who has looked at or applied for federal jobs knows the USAJobs website all too well. Today, there’s good news! The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) revealed yesterday a brand-new interface for the USAJobs site, featuring more user-friendly ways to sort and search for jobs, refine searches, and most importantly, track the status of your applications. A brief article from Government Executive summarizes the changes and provides some nice quotes from OPM officers explaining the motivation for change. One particularly nice feature to check out is the Students page, which has information on internships, fellowships, and routes into permanent federal service.
