ODV,
I know that many of you have division newsletters and the like, and wanted to call to your attention to a job opportunity at the FCC that would be perfect for the right ham. HQ picked it
up yesterday and posted a piece on the ARRL website, and you may wish to publicize it in your divisions. Application deadline is Aug. 15.
The job is at the FCC’s HF Direction Finding Center. They do a lot of work that you rarely hear about that is exciting for the right kind of “radio” person. A description of the capabilities
and functions at the FCC’s HF center is here:
https://www.fcc.gov/over-air-spectrum-observation-capabilities. The job description and application information is here:
https://www.usajobs.gov/job/665764100.
With regard to amateur experience, note that this posting specifically states that “Experience refers
to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community, student, social).
Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. You will receive credit for all qualifying
experience, including volunteer experience.”
73, Dave K3ZJ
