Applicants are evaluated in accordance with Delegated Examining Procedures. All are rated on the extent and quality of experience, education, and training relevant to the duties of the position. An automated ranking system based on the online application process is used. Before a certificate of names can be issued to the selecting official, the resume is reviewed carefully by an HR Specialist to assure that (a) minimum qualification requirements are met, (b) the resume supports the answers provided to the job-specific questions, and (c) that your resume addresses experience and education relevant to this position.
The highest ranking eligible applicants will receive a numerical rating, including additional points for Veteran’s preference. Veteran’s preference will not be granted without proof as described under the “required documents” section of this announcement. The highest scoring, qualified applicants will be referred to the
selecting official.
Your answers will be verified against information provided in your online resume and application. Be sure that your resume clearly supports your responses to all the questions addressing experience and education relevant to this position.
There are several parts of the application process that affect the overall evaluation of your application: the applicant assessment questions, the core questions, supplemental documentation submitted, and your resume. This automated application system simplifies the application process, by replacing the former KSA job-element questions with the online applicant assessment questions. Your resume is an integral part of the process for determining if you meet the basic qualifications of the position, and whether you are found to be best qualified. Therefore, it is important to thoroughly explain what you did and how you did it, rather than just listing your current and former employers
