Viewed federal vacancy announcement. Answered KSA essay questions specific to job applied for. That means pages of essays. Submit resume and essays by emailing or faxing materials. Waited months to hear anything back. Interview seemed to indicate that no one read the materials submitted. Although job was for IT position, only managers participated in interview and were in no position to assess my technical skills. Never heard anything back after the interview but called HR repeatedly to find out for sure that I didn't get it.
