Venting

Gah!
One of the most frustrating things about applying for jobs with the government is that they make you jump through more hoops than a circus poodle.
I applied for a job with the Naval Research Center earlier this week. I started at USAJobs, then got transferred to some automated applications manager that the Navy uses. I filled out the necessary bits and pieces, submitted my resume and sent my application off with the touch of a button.
This morning, I get an e-mail advising that my application has been received but that they require additional information and so I should reapply for the position if I'm interested. Okay. Fine.
I go back to USAJobs, to my saved applications, but there's no link to the Navy applications manager. I try the Navy website, but there's no link there either.
Great.
Joy.
I finally get to the applications manager, but when I try to sign in, I'm told that my account does not exist. What the hell?
I've been beating my head against the wall with this damn thing for about two hours now and, ladies and gentlemen, I've had it. I'm not jumping through any more hoops today, especially for a job that I'm not sure I actually want.
So, screw you U.S. Navy and your damned applications website as well!
