[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 305297, member: 4040"] Pay scales vary by location; depending on cost of living etc. Your entering GS level is determined by the prescribed GS level for the job. When I worked for the IRS, I was a full-time seasonal employee, but since I was expected to work more than 6 months a year, I was eligible for health insurance. No contract, I just had to come back when they called me to come back at the beginning of the new season. I imagine any perks like being paid to move or a sign on bonus would be dependent on the job. Schedules and time off, again, depending on the job. I was a CSR, worked from 7:30 am - 4 pm Monday through Friday, but others started at 5:30 am, and swing shift ended at 1:30 am. I worked about 8 months/year, but other positions, like Data Transcriber, only last about 3 months. They used to post a lot of open positions online, I think it was America's Jobs, or something like that. If you have a service center nearby, you have a better chance of being hired there than a TAC office, just because of the number of people they hire. Good luck. Job hunting is not fun. [/QUOTE]
