  • Open to everyoneAny U.S. citizen or national can apply. Some jobs also accept non-citizens; the announcement says so.

This job is open to the public, but you must be a U.S. citizen (or owe allegiance to the U.S.) to apply. If you are a current permanent employee of the Minneapolis VA or another current permanent federal employee, the agency says to apply under announcement CBSY-13101969-27-MI instead.

  • Develop and update pharmacy policies and procedures for the program.
  • Ensure the program follows Joint Commission and VA standards and directives.

  • Use informatics tools to find Veterans on blood thinners at risk of harm.

Do you qualify for GS-13?

With experience: You need 1 year of experience at the GS-12 level, which is the level just below this job. Qualifying experience includes working as a professional pharmacist, communicating with patients and staff, knowing laws on controlled drugs, and monitoring how drug treatments work. Residency or fellowship training in a specialty area can count toward this experience, year for year.

With education: You must be a graduate of an ACPE-accredited pharmacy school with a bachelor's degree in pharmacy (BS Pharmacy) and/or a Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) degree. Graduates of foreign pharmacy programs qualify with FPGEC certification, which includes passing the FPGEE exam and the TOEFL iBT English test. A Pharm.D. is preferred.

Licenses and certifications you need:

  • Full, current and unrestricted license to practice pharmacy in a U.S. state, territory, Puerto Rico, or the District of Columbia

  • Official transcript (required for education)
  • Written answers to the job's knowledge, skills and abilities (KSAs), on a separate document (highly recommended)
  • SF-50 if you are a current or former federal employee

How you will be rated: You will be rated on how well you meet the qualifications, based on your questionnaire and application documents. VA may verify your resume, CV and other documents, and may check references. Missing information or unclear descriptions of your experience can lead to disqualification.

Tips for this job:

  • Write your answers to each KSA clearly, since the agency strongly recommends it.
  • Show your GS-12-level pharmacy experience in your resume, with dates and hours per week.
  • Attach your transcript, since you must submit it to qualify through education.
