Here are a few reminders for any interested applicants:

  • Resumes should also include a month/year and hours per week worked, along with their relevant work experience underneath each period of employment.  Their resume should contain enough details regarding their work experience for us to determine whether they have the specialized experience or not.
  • If they have current or prior federal service, they should list the grade levels. If this is left out, it won’t necessarily get them rated out, but it may help them get rated in easier. Submitting copies of their SF-50’s showing their current grade and series is also helpful OR if they were previously in the series, they should submit those SF-50’s too.
  • They MUST submit ALL required documentation prior to the announcement closing. All documents must be legible. They can always e-mail the contact person in the announcement to confirm that their documents have all been uploaded correctly. Sometimes the documents submitted are blurry and really hard to read, or the file is corrupt, and we can’t access their documents. We do NOT accept late documents.
  • If they receive an email to complete a secondary assessment (USA Hire Competency Based Assessment), they must complete the assessment within the timelines identified by the email, or they will not be considered.  Note, they should set aside at least 3 hours to take these assessments; however, most applicants complete the assessments in less time.
  • Please Note: The ABOVE information and much more can be found on the HELP section of the USAjobs site. It goes more into detail regarding the federal hiring process, proper resume format and covers some of what I’ve listed above in more detail.    https://www.usajobs.gov/Help/
