i got dat hyp/hys pedigree, but was never interested in big law. i also have military background (not jag), for whatever that's worth.

how difficult would this move be?

You need experience and a connection with a local office.

I have seen a lot of State-level prosecutors go Fed, but it was because they had connections to that district and they knew someone on the inside who could pass along their resume.

I doubt you can just JUMP to a Fed's office considering how competitive it is. You'll have to build up the necessary experience first.

would the civil division be less competitive? i prefer crim, but i've interned in civ before and it seemed more laid back, which is nice.

connections to the district like being from there and interning there before? i know a fellow reservist who is an ausa, would that help?

this is common. you do need a "connection", meaning any employee/former employee who can forward your resume.

yes. it doesn't need to be a strong connection, you just need your resume to skip the USAJOBS pile. the employee will most likely help you out if you ask, because it's easier and faster than sending you a rejection.

i feel like a lot would depend on practice area

some AG offices do a lot of medcaid fraud state-fed task force type shit where they work with USAOs

i would think such experience would be pretty portable to a USAO
