Can you apply?
Yes, if you are a U.S. citizen: this job is open to everyone.
- Open to everyoneAny U.S. citizen or national can apply. Some jobs also accept non-citizens; the announcement says so.
The job is open to the public, but you must be a U.S. citizen, a U.S. national, or someone who owes allegiance to the U.S. Applicants are sorted by hiring preferences such as military spouse preference, outside applicant veteran, and transition hiring preference, and you must prove any preference you claim.
What you would do
- Set up cafeteria lines, dining tables, and serving stations with hot and cold food
- Serve food cafeteria style and clean the area after meals
- Set up and run dishwashers, and wash pots, pans, and bowls
- Do heavy cleaning such as ceilings, exhaust hoods, floors, and walk-in coolers
- Make cold sandwiches, coffee, tea, and other beverages
Do you qualify for NA-2?
With experience: The announcement lists required abilities instead of a set number of years of work. You must be able to read and follow written and spoken instructions, use hand tools, often lift up to 20 pounds, and stand, walk, bend, and reach for long periods.
With education: Education cannot replace experience for this job. Foreign education can count only if it is shown to be equal to a U.S. education, and U.S. schools must be accredited by a body recognized by the U.S. Department of Education.
Licenses and certifications you need:
- Food Handler's Certificate, or the ability to complete food handler training
How to apply well
What to send:
- Resume that clearly describes your relevant experience (required)
- Proof of any hiring preference you claim, such as a DD-214 for veterans
- Cover letter (accepted but not required)
How you will be rated: Your online questionnaire, resume, and supporting documents are compared to decide if you meet the minimum qualifications, and then your questionnaire answers are checked against your resume. If the review finds you inflated your answers to meet the requirements, you may lose consideration.
Tips for this job:
- Make sure your resume clearly describes your relevant work, with dates, before you submit.
- Upload proof for any preference you claim, such as a DD-214, or your application may be incomplete.
- Plan to get a Food Handler's Certificate, since the job requires it or the training.
