Internal Revenue Service
As a bureau of the Department of the Treasury and as one of the world's most efficient tax administrators, the IRS role is to help the large majority of compliant taxpayers with the tax law, while ensuring that the minority who are unwilling to comply pay their fair share. (Source: www.irs.gov)
This forum will allow you to share and ask job-related questions about this bureau. This is NOT the place to ask tax questions.

I heard IRS is hiring COBOL developers for legacy systems.
Right now an internal posting is floating around. I guess an external job posting should also be available now.
Lot of training is being focused for internal candidates as well.
Looks like the SMEs are being trained with java and other skills along with external hirings.
Heard more internal promotions happened than external hiring for 2018.
All the Best!!

Posting it for user mc13 who cannot post yet.
I cannot post in this forum for some reason. I am a new member.
I was wondering if you may post this for me?
I am located in the MD area and i was given a TO letter a few weeks ago. I did complete my fingerprinting and photo. I have been assigned to the New Carrollton office in MD. Any ideas on when i could be expected to start? My TO states i was accepted at a GS14. Just looking for some insight as to how long it took everyone else to get a firm offer letter. Also, just because we get a TO letter are the chances for us actually getting the job really really good?
thanks.

I have been seeing more new hires in WV. A couple that I spoke to that started this week (there were about 10) applied in June, almost 6 months ago.

Well, management did get excoriated in an audit report by TIGTA over screwing up the so-called hiring surge. Folks in AM are worried that our VoIP phones will crash ENTERPRISE-wide or if the database will finally die on us. These VoIP phones that we use for taking calls from taxpayers fit the stereotype of being the highest quality by the lowest bidder.

The Cisco phones, there is a terrible delay, seems like it is 2 seconds or more. We are waiting for an internal hire that got picked in Aug, you would think that would be quick being on the inside! Originally Posted by: LieutenantBlantyre

What happened with the hiring surge? Have to review TIGTA report if it is public.
I logged in today to see if anyone can confirm. I found out, though not officially so asking here, that Vets and other preferences are given to all candidates regardless of if they applied after the cutoff dates for some postings. For some positions, there was a two to four week cutoff period for first consideration and I was under the impression that the subset of applicants from that pool would be taken, rated, preferences applied, offered and if positions not filled then move on to more. Can anyone confirm if what I heard is true or what I thought it was? If its the latter then a lot of people who applied sooner would be out of luck since many of these positions are still open so they will continue to get preference candidates.
General caveat, not judging any preferences but simply trying to make sense of it all for IRS jobs.
