Quick question: for those applying to VA roles, are direct-hire PACT Act postings moving you faster than standard USAJOBS announcements, especially for non-clinical series like 0343 and 0671? In Tampa last quarter we filled a GS-9/11 Program Analyst via DHA in 32 days versus about 80 via competitive merit, and I’m trying to validate if that pattern holds elsewhere to inform a hiring policy brief.
