GGD-92-24R 1 (1992-07-28)

handle is hein.gao/gaobackcj0001 and id is 1 raw text is: United States Washington, D.C. 20548 General Government Division July 28, 1992 147213 The Honorable David Pryor Chairman, Subcommittee on Federal Services, Post Office, and Civil Service Committee on Governmental Affairs United States Senate Dear Mr. Chairman: Today we issued our report Federal Employment: Poor Service Found at Federal Job Information Centers (GAO/GGD-92-116). It describes the obstacles and inconveniences job seekers may encounter when trying to obtain information on federal employment from the Office of Personnel Management's (OPM) Federal Job Information Centers (FJIC). In discussing our findings with Subcommittee staff, they asked about federal job information services available to residents of Arkansas. There is no FJIC in Arkansas. Arkansas residents must either call the Career America Connection--a 900 number costing 40 cents a minute--or contact the Oklahoma City FJIC, which has information on job opportunities in Arkansas. The Oklahoma City FJIC provides information by mail or telephone only. Because our report was limited to those FJICs offering walk-in service, it did not cover the Oklahoma City FJIC. However, we did have a staff member contact the Oklahoma City FJIC to see what services Arkansas residents might receive. As discussed below, our staff member's experiences in contacting that FJIC were similar to those discussed in the report. As with many of the walk-in FJICs, she encountered a number of problems with the Oklahoma City FJIC that would likely frustrate job seekers. GAO/GGD-92-24R, Federal Job Information 0 5o/V ,~
