#169: Separating from Federal Government Jobs
Josh and Amelie discuss things to think about when separating from federal government jobs.
Top takeaways:
- Before deciding whether to take a separation package, try to take the emotion out and instead think about what you want the next phase of your life to look like.
- If you’re going through a big career transition, think of your next position as a transitional and perhaps temporary job.
- The first, voluntary package is always better than the non-voluntary package.
- Everything is negotiable–you may or may not get what you’re trying to negotiate but there’s nothing wrong with asking.
- As soon as you are no longer employed, apply for unemployment.
- Figure out what the deadlines for COBRA are.
