Memo From OPM On Administrative Law Judge Hiring

An anonymous person has posted this memorandum that is said to have gone out recently from the Office of Personnel Management to federal agencies:
MEMORANDUM FOR CHIEF HUMAN CAPITAL OFFICERS

FROM:
Linda M. Springer
Director

Subject:
Administrative Law Judge Examination

The Office of Personnel Management (OPM)has issued revised regulations for the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) program (5 CFRpart 930, subpart B), which took effect on April 19, 2007. As a result of the revisions to the regulations, OPM will soon issue a new ALJ vacancy announcement to introduce a new ALJ examination, which will replace the existing register.

The existing register will remain in effect until a new ALJ register is established. OPM will establish the new register after completely processing all ALJ applications based on the new examination.

The new vacancy announcement will be posted in the next few days on OPM's USAJOBS website: http://www.usajobs.opm.gov/. Individuals can conduct a search with the job title "ALl" to locate the OPM vacancy announcementwhen it is posted. Full details concerning the application and the examinationprocess will be provided in the announcement.
