Job applicants to the US Department of the Interior will soon face a revamped hiring process that includes essay questions, part of an effort to align federal personnel more closely with presidential priorities and weed out the deep staters.
An internal memo circulated last week by the department’s human capital office outlines the integration of the questions as part of a broader merit-based hiring plan, rather than the diversity-mandated hiring strategy of the Biden Administration. Applicants must write four 200-word essays addressing their work ethic, skills and experience, commitment to the Constitution, and how they would advance President Trump’s executive orders and policy priorities. The last item has earned the scorn of anti-Trumpers.
The essay component originates from a federal hiring overhaul launched in 2020 under Trump 1, to modernize civil service recruitment. Led by the Office of Personnel Management, the initiative emphasized practical skills over traditional educational credentials and sought to streamline the hiring process through shorter resumes and competency-based evaluations. The OPM has directed agencies to stop collecting demographic data on race, sex, and religion in the workforce.
While some civil service reform advocates have praised the plan, deep staters are wringing their hands about their chances to infiltrate government agencies.
When I see the interior dept in my community I see crony hiring of Leftists period. So they get what they have delivered to others.
“rather than the diversity-mandated hiring strategy of the Biden Administration.”
That is an overly polite way of saying the great replacement mandate, or the anti white mandate. Never have a people been so polite while being deracinated and disenfranchised. Shame on “conservatives” for being such cowards for lack of a better word.
White children are now a hated minority in America, that is the “conservative”legacy.
The definition of deep state (if there is one) is a loyalty test.
Loyalty to the Democratic Party and the wokeism agenda. That’s why these groups flock to government jobs. Check their spelling too. The younger ones can’t spell, write cursive, and hardly have a legible signature.
This has to happen. The deep state must be rooted out and destroyed. I used to listen to my father in law years ago before he retired. He was a scientist. He continually wondered where they were getting these new hires that were more interested in ideology and going to meetings than actually getting work done. They were the future of the deep state. That was 30 years ago.
“Loyalty tests” make a lot of sense, although some use it as a pejorative. If you’re not loyal to President Trump, you have no business in government. They should apply the loyalty test to all current government employees. You’re either loyal to President Trump, or you’re out of a job, that simple. This is especially critical for military and federal police, the two groups that can oppose President Trump the most.
We are almost there. Just need to keep pushing a bit longer and we will Make America Great Again!
DJT 2028!
All I can say is good riddance to Deb Haaland and all of her cronies!
