I don't know, but I've been applying for federal jobs for almost a year and haven't heard been selected for an interview YET.

I'm glad I'm employed though

Well after school I went about four years bc you can't get a job with a psych undergrad degree and I wasn't ready for grad school yet. During that time I was also getting certified. I worked a temporary job for the past two years, I'm unemployed again now, but I go into grad school in the fall and basically it says on the forms that you cannot have a job due to all the work and the internship. You actually have to sign a form that says you will not get a job during the time you're in school. So.. I'll be working unpaid for two years while in grad school.
