Do you want to work and live in a warm place while you take out the Meanies?
Do you believe 'stealin' needs to stop?
Well, I believe I may have just found the job for you!
DOJ is kicking its game up to a whole 'nother level and it is about time.
Criminal Division's Office of Overseas Prosecutorial Development, Assistance and Training (OPDAT) is going after all those people who were stealin' from the children through privatization schemes of child welfare NGOs to fund political campaigns, to direct Public contracts to Private corporations to split to booty of their child welfare fraud schemes to fund bank and real estate fraud schemes to fund their dark, special projects, to fund their other dark, special projects, to continue stealin'.
For our new fans, I will be gracious enough to provide a tutorial of what stealin' is because too many do not click my embedded links to the my supportive sources.
STEALIN': When a public official, whether appointed, candidate, elected, former staffer, or anyone who has taken an oath to uphold any controlling instrument of organization, like the U.S. Constitution, to not use one's public position for personal inurement by lying, greed, or just being really stupid by setting up and/or engaging in fraud schemes, whether simple or complex, to steal, not limited to, children, land, and/or the vote.
Typical indicators of simple fraud schemes may be demonstrated in patterns of emoluments or receiving titles of nobility by accepting trips to foreign countries, posting up Facebook fashion show selfies in South African Bentleys then running to church to do a political campaign fundraiser to cover it up.
Complex fraud schemes may take the form of recieving political campaign funding through FEC Political Action Committees set up by foreign nationals, (like Israel working under the cover of a Russian corporation) many who have been found culpable in civil fraud schemes through agency OIG investigations, that only have to pay a small percentage on the false claims, that do not have to register under FARA, to eventually through a kickback to the successfully elected candidate who will, in turn, direct more private contracts to the foreign national through legislative activities, not limited to tabling bills in committees, changing a vote, or manipulating a collective vote through blackmail, espionage or other questionable methods.

Department Policies
Equal Employment Opportunity: The U.S. Department of Justice is an Equal Opportunity/Reasonable Accommodation Employer. Except where otherwise provided by law, there will be no discrimination because of color, race, religion, national origin, political affiliation, marital status, disability (physical or mental), age, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, genetic information, status as a parent, membership or non-membership in an employee organization, on the basis of personal favoritism, or any other non-merit factor. The Department of Justice welcomes and encourages applications from persons with physical and mental disabilities. The Department is firmly committed to satisfying its affirmative obligations under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, to ensure that persons with disabilities have every opportunity to be hired and advanced on the basis of merit within the Department of Justice.
Reasonable Accommodations: This agency provides reasonable accommodation to applicants with disabilities where appropriate. If you need a reasonable accommodation for any part of the application and hiring process, please notify the agency. Determinations on requests for reasonable accommodation will be made on a case-by-case basis.
Outreach and Recruitment for Qualified Applicants with Disabilities: The Department encourages qualified applicants with disabilities, including individuals with targeted/severe disabilities to apply in response to posted vacancy announcements. Qualified applicants with targeted/severe disabilities may be eligible for direct hire, non-competitive appointment under Schedule A (5 C.F.R. § 213.3102(u)) hiring authority. Individuals with targeted/severe disabilities are encouraged to register for the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Shared List of People with Disabilities (the Bender Disability Employment Registry) by submitting their resume to resume@benderconsult.comand referencing "Federal Career Opportunities" in the subject line. Additional information about the Bender Registry is available at www.benderconsult.com. Individuals with disabilities may also contact one of the Department’s Disability Points of Contact (DPOC). See list of DPOCs.
Suitability and Citizenship: It is the policy of the Department to achieve a drug-free workplace and persons selected for employment will be required to pass a drug test which screens for illegal drug use prior to final appointment. Employment is also contingent upon the completion and satisfactory adjudication of a background investigation. Congress generally prohibits agencies from employing non-citizens within the United States, except for a few narrow exceptions as set forth in the annual Appropriations Act (see, https://www.usajobs.gov/Help/working-in-government/non-citizens/).
Pursuant to DOJ component policies, only U.S. citizens are eligible for employment with the Executive Office for Immigration Review, U.S. Trustee’s Offices, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Unless otherwise indicated in a particular job advertisement, qualifying non-U.S. citizens meeting immigration and appropriations law criteria may apply for employment with other DOJ organizations. However, please be advised that the appointment of non-U.S. citizens is extremely rare; such appointments would be possible only if necessary to accomplish the Department's mission and would be subject to strict security requirements. Applicants who hold dual citizenship in the U.S. and another country will be considered on a case-by-case basis. All DOJ employees are subject to a residency requirement. Candidates who have lived outside the United States for two or more of the past five years will likely have difficulty being approved for appointments by the Department Security Staff. The two-year period is cumulative, not necessarily consecutive. Federal or military employees, or dependents of federal or military employees serving overseas, are excepted from this requirement.

Veterans: There is no formal rating system for applying veterans' preference to attorney appointments in the excepted service; however, the Department of Justice considers veterans' preference eligibility as a positive factor in attorney hiring. Applicants eligible for veterans' preference must include that information in their cover letter or resume and attach supporting documentation (e.g., the DD 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty and other supporting documentation) to their submissions. Although the "point" system is not used, per se, applicants eligible to claim 10-point preference must submit Standard Form (SF) 15, Application for 10-Point Veteran Preference, and submit the supporting documentation required for the specific type of preference claimed (visit the OPM website, www.opm.gov/forms/pdf_fill/SF15.pdf for a copy of SF 15, which lists the types of 10-point preferences and the required supporting document(s).
Applicants should note that SF 15 requires supporting documentation associated with service- connected disabilities or receipt of nonservice-connected disability pensions to be dated 1991 or later except in the case of service members submitting official statements or retirement orders from a branch of the Armed Forces showing that his or her retirement was due to a permanent service-connected disability or that he/she was transferred to the permanent disability retired list (the statement or retirement orders must indicate that the disability is 10% or more).
