<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As you may know, the Osage Nation has a
Native/Osage hiring preference. If you do have an Osage CDIB (or any
other tribal affiliation, for that matter), you might have a better
chance getting the job, assuming it's not filled in-house. Plus I'm
pretty sure there's not exactly an abundance of linguists around here with
Osage roll numbers, so you might not have much competition, either!</FONT></DIV>
