"The quality of new talent that we are getting is phenomenal," said Kimberly King, career service manager for analysis within the Defense Intelligence Agency's Office of Human Resources. "We've got more talent than we can possibly onboard. And they come in such interesting backgrounds already, having done the internships, having done cross-disciplinary programs, speaking a language, doing engineering plus math, it's phenomenal."
"If your career development feels like it's from the 1990s, it probably is," said Sherman. "And by that, I mean there's career services and a lot of thoughtfulness being put across the agencies into this, but it still feels very government. And I think from a generation that is super creative, if they are going to experience inflexibility, yes, they'll do the mission...but the highly laddered, structured, 'because we said so,' and 'this is what you must do to get from pay band four to pay band five,' it can be suffocating."
