I've seen that too many times as well.... but that's not the case here. With our agency and many others in the federal government an "impartial" panel evaluates the applicants. Typically they bring back retired former employees to be on the panel as they shouldn't have any such self-interest concerns. I only have the word "impartial" in quotes because there is always the human element that if this ex-employee knows an applicant and knows their work they are, either consciously or subconsciously, biased for or against the applicant before even reviewing their application.
