6 Spikes to StrikeQuickly

It all started with the first ever Intelligence Community Virtual Career Fair in March 2010 [which] spurred the idea of Skype interviews, to go along with the ‘virtual’ theme of the career fair and show NGA as a forward thinking agency on the cutting edge of technology
Skype has been a successful tool for our hiring events, and we will continue to utilize Skype as part of our hiring strategy…• Reach diverse candidates, save the agency (and applicants) time / money• Advertise and interview candidates from across the country without leaving
the local area (and applicants can interview from home!)• No interviews were conducted in person; all were done online via Skype• All panels were located at a contractor facility in the Washington, DC area• Applicants were at their homes/businesses across the country• Our offices and hiring managers were impressed with the high quality of
the applicants we interviewed at this event.
It wasn't too long before I stumbled upon Sterling Whitehead who was piloting a mentor/mentee program through YAP. He paired me up with Tina Borger, CPPO, Director of Research at the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP). She encouraged me to rework my resume a bit, and championed me all the way through NIGP's HR and hiring process. Literally 3 weeks later I was the new Standards Manager at NIGP.
I continue to take ideas from GovLoop to innovate in my position here at NIGP!
Honestly...I was bored, unemployed, and going through my morning ritual of sending out about 25-30 resumes a day. I did a Google search for something like "Government Contract Administration" and stumbled on a GovLoop blog post. I dug through the site, including the job board, and signed up!
