MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Support
I have reviewed the Eyes Only paper you sent to me yester-
day on the Data Processing Personnel Problem. No purpose
would be served in a counter-refutation of the arguments made
in that paper, though I might enjoy debating with its author.
If you and the DD/S&T also agree with the proposal in para-
graph 8, we would be happy to have Mr. 0 take on the job.
We would ask Mr. also to make a contribution as he has
well underway even now an analysis of the Agency's structure in
this field--identifying all the places where we find machines
or people. I would urge, however, that we add one more member
to the task force to represent the DDI, for NPIC is not the
only component of that Directorate concerned with computer-
driven systems. I think that under the circumstances that
F__ I the Personnel Officer in Jack Smith's office,
would be the logical man. I have not discussed this with
Mr. 0 and will await doing so until I have had word
from you.

Federal agencies plan to fill more than a thousand jobs in

Most of the vacancies are in the Washington, D. C., area,
but many exist elsewhere throughout the country and overseas.
The openings include jobs for both digital computer
programfrs and digital computer systems analysts, at grades
GS-9 through 12 ($7,479 to $10,619 a year). Travel and moving
expenses for persons appointed to programer and analyst jobs
in Washington, D. C., and for their immediate families, may be
paid by the employing agency.
Applicants at the GS-11 and 12 levels must have had a total
of 6 years of administrative or professional work experience
which has demonstrated the ability to enter and progress in
data processing work. Only 5 years of such experience is
required for the GS-9 level.
At all levels, programer applicants must have had in
their total experience at least one year of specific programing
experience, and analyst applicants at least a year of computer
systems experience.
Related college study or training in the digital computer
field may be substituted for some of the required experience.
Competitors for the positions at all levels need not take
a written examination. They will be rated on the extent and
quality of experience and training in the duties of the position.
All qualified applicants will be considered for appointment
regardless of race, creed, color, sex, or national origin.
Veteran-preference eligibles will have 5 or 10 points
added to their ratings, as appropriate.
