So few people want to work at the White House that it's advertising at a job fair

The usual challenge in filling jobs in the White House is picking the very best candidates out of an enormous pool of eager applicants. The challenge in the Trump White House is filling jobs at all—to the point where White House and other administration jobs are being advertised at a job fair. The “Conservative Partnership Institute” is hosting the fair, which top White House personnel managers plan to attend.

[Advertising for the event] promises that “representatives from across the Trump administration will be there to meet job seekers of every experience level.” [...]

“There are positions currently open and we are looking for the most competent conservatives to recommend,” the flyer, shared with POLITICO, reads.

Is “competent” really the first requirement? Above “willing to sign a personal loyalty oath to Donald Trump”? Doubtful.

But seriously, let it sink in. The White House. Is advertising at a job fair. That’s … pathetic.

So much winning...

We actually have a shadow shop in the WH that some of our techs transfer to and some back. I never wanted to because you were on call 24/7 and when they said you have to work over time, and there was tons, there was no no. One of techs transferred there so his wife could tell everyone her husband works at the White House, well that's what we thought.

I guess Americans don't really want to MAGA after all despite their bluster.

Doesn't matter if your last name is Trump or Kuschner

I honestly wish they'd do better. We need a fully functional govt. It's what we pay for when we're not borrowing money from rich people to give it back to them as tax cuts.

The article is heavy on spin and strikes me as too much of a "take that, conservatives" piece, but it does highlight one of the many serious problems with this administration: there are many unoccupied posts that a competent administration (i.e. virtually every administration before Trump's) would have filled a long time ago.

Well, of course they're having trouble filling positions if they're only telling conservatives about them.

Run it like a business! Like a sleazy real estate developer!
