Now I'm just bummed to know that there are throngs of people out there that are just dying for others to join their costume parties, but they don't want to invite *me* for some reason...sigh...

There are 14 positions on the Careers page (hr.nih.gov/careers/open...). All are senior administrators (presumably to back-fill folks that have recently been sh*tcanned for being insufficiently supportive of the Director)

NIH *is* on this Reddit list of non-USAjobs-using agencies (www.reddit.com/r/usajobs/co...), but I'm pretty sure I've applied to NLM positions on USAJobs in the past.

Weirdly, this position is nowhere to be found at USAJobs. But it would have to be a regular FedGov position, right?
