    Not sure the link is right.
    When I click I get an announcement that the position is closed.
    But when I go through to the information, the salary range is different.
    Tom?

      I think you're right, John.
      See, people, it pays to read the comments.

    I t6ried to apply for this job. I found it frustrating; impossible is a strong word, but I just could not apply. I tried through USAJOBS. Here are some of the difficulties/obstacles I found:
    - There is no way to apply online.
    - There is a section called "how to apply". It says " you must complete the occupational questionnaire and submit the documentation specified in the Required Documents section below". Fine. Where's the questionnaire? Where do you send the documentation? I tried calling the number listed on the ad, many times, for several days: no one answers, no way to leave a message. I sent a message to the email listed: no answer. I called the ombudsman office and spoke to an individual who told me someone would get in touch with me to answer my questions: no one ever called.
    - I went to the "careers at the federal reserve" page. I registered, so I could apply. After I registered, I could no longer find the ad. It isn't listed there.
    - I tried this link: http://federalgovernmentjobs.us/jobs/Manager-Reserve-Bank-Services-Section-and-Deputy-Ombudsman-370705600.html#jobdescription
    It simply wasn't possible to apply. Every attempt led me to a dead end.

    On the USAJOBS ad, where it says "what to expect next:", there is nothing.

    I tried calling their ombudsman office again (Phone
    1-800-337-0429 ), and got the voice mail instead. I encourage everyone to try calling, just to hear what the message calls the office. I believe I heard "omsbudsman's". If I heard it correctly, I must say a little attention to detail wouldn't hurt. Cheeses!
