Announcements and Reads
🫶It has been a tough couple of weeks to keep up with news wise, part of the “shock and awe” approach this administration seems to be taking. Some of the news sources I have been following include Don Moynihan’s newsletter, “Can We Still Govern?”; and “What The Fuck Just Happened Today?” from Matt Kiser. Comment other suggestions below!
❓You’ll notice that there are none or very few federal-level roles included in recent newsletters. With the continued questions about the federal workforce, I expect to only be sharing federal roles with a direct referral from current federal employees. If you are a federal employee who is actively hiring, please share your roles through the open role submission link. Despite that, it is clear that there continues to be significant hiring in tech roles at the local and state level.
🏫 Technologists for the Public Good is seeking connections with career coaches and counselors, both certified and informal, to support technologists experiencing a moment of career transition. If you or someone you know have experience with providing career counseling or professional coaching, please connect. The goal is to develop a program that provides civic technologists and public interest technologists with career counseling, with the exact format to be determined in conversation with coaches. If you are interested, please reach out to hi@publicgood.tech with a reference to your experience (e.g. resume, LinkedIn profile, website).

As always, Rebecca, thank you for your thoughts and efforts in putting this together.
It's definitely a disorienting period. I saw a banner about the "First 100 Days" that we so commonly think as when administrations make their most significant decisions. It feels like we're speed running that timeline and I can't keep up. Luckily, people are stepping up and creating trackers of executive orders and other decisions.
