Because NOAA is part of the Federal government, expect job applications to be inspected technically detailed relative to compliance with a mountain of Federal statutes and regulations.
Because people who don't get hired can literally get their Congressional and Senate representatives involved.
This makes getting hired into the Civil Service hard. Internal candidates are usually at an advantage. Veterans always are.

- warner25 2y ago> Internal candidates are usually at an advantage. Veterans always are. The system is as you described. Internal candidates already know it and veterans, when transitioning out of uniformed service, get a full-blown class on it: how to prepare their "Federal resume" (which is unlike any resume that a reasonable person might otherwise prepare) and navigate the hiring process. So it's that on top of already having relevant experience and credentials or preference points. I've been on the hiring side for Federal GS positions, and I'll tell you that it can be just as frustrating on that side too.
