Lindner offers up another indispensable guide to the particulars of navigating the federal bureaucracy from within. This all-in-one guide introduces readers to the general structure of the U.S. government, the different types of employment available, the application process, and career performance and planning from day one until retirement. The guide is comprehensive and well written, equally applicable to readers who are considering applying for entry-level jobs and those applying for managerial positions. The process of applying for and working within the federal bureaucracy is entirely different from anything experienced in the private sector. Researching the various requirements, pay grades, and experience levels could become a full-time job in and of itself. This guide gives the reader pertinent information along with 100 "lessons" (pieces of advice dispensed in one-sentence highlights throughout the text) that will provide a single road map to the entire process. Nothing is overlooked in this guide; there are exhaustive lists of every federal agency, bureau, committee, service, etc. within all three branches of government.
