  • Work with management and vendor stocking representatives on ordering issues.

Do you qualify for GS-5?

With experience: You need one year of specialized experience equivalent to at least GS-4. Examples include using handheld terminals to update inventory, ordering product, and keeping a perpetual inventory. Private sector, military, and other federal experience can count.

With education: Four full years of education above high school at an accredited school can qualify you instead of experience. You can also combine experience and education, using the percentage formula in the announcement.

What to send:

  • Resume of two pages or less, showing hours worked per week, dates, and duties
  • SF-50 showing your current position title, pay plan, series, grade, and tenure, required for DeCA employees

  • DD-214 if you claim veterans' preference, plus SF 15 for 10-point preference
  • Documents proving any eligibility you select in the online questionnaire

How you will be rated: HR reviews your documents to see if you meet the minimum qualifications, and an online questionnaire gives a preliminary score based on the job's competencies. Qualified applicants may then take the USA Hire Assessment within 48 hours after the announcement closes, and are placed in Best Qualified, Highly Qualified, or Qualified categories. Incomplete packages, resumes over two pages, overstated experience, photos, or personal details such as age or gender can result in an ineligible rating.

Tips for this job:

  • Keep your resume to two pages or less and list hours worked per week for each job, or it may be removed from consideration.
  • If you use education to qualify, attach transcripts, since a photocopy of your diploma is not accepted.
