I have been at my current position for five months, and as noted in previous posts, it is not panning out to be what was initially presented. Anyway, my position involves working at other locations throughout the week that are affiliated with my employer, but separate entities (all government agencies). There is an internal posting at the location closest to my home, that I currently work from two days per week. It is an internal posting that closes today. Would it be appropriate to send my resume to HR? Do I note in my cover letter that I realize it is still an internal posting at this time? Am I going to shoot myself in the foot if my current employer finds out I'm applying for other positions after only five months? Help, MMM!
