  • 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. Preference categories such as veterans, military spouses, and transition hiring apply, and you must prove any preference you claim.

  • Repair and replace furniture, blinds, doors, locks, and bed frames.

Licenses and certifications you need:

  • Valid driver's license

How to apply well

What to send:

  • Resume that clearly describes your relevant carpentry, painting, and maintenance experience
  • DD-214 or statement of service if you claim veterans' preference
  • Other proof of any preference you claim, such as marriage proof for military spouse preference
  • Remove other people's personal information from any documents you upload

How you will be rated: After the announcement closes, your resume, supporting documents, and questionnaire answers are reviewed against the qualifications. If you appear to have inflated your experience, you may lose consideration.

Tips for this job:

  • Your resume must clearly describe your hands-on carpentry, painting, and maintenance work, with dates and hours.
  • Education does not count for this job, so focus on work and volunteer experience.
  • Upload proof for any preference you claim, such as a DD-214 for veterans, and check that you included all required documents.
