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.

This job is open to the public. You must be a U.S. citizen, a national (resident of American Samoa or Swains Island), or someone who owes allegiance to the U.S.; veterans eligible under the Veterans Opportunity to Work Act are included.

What you would do

  • Review legislative proposals with the Chief Policy Officer and department director.
  • Coordinate PBGC responses to requests for technical help from Congress and federal agencies.
  • Develop outreach plans and brief congressional staff on agency actions and developments.
  • Monitor hearings, retirement legislation, and policy proposals from other agencies and outside parties.
  • Plan, direct, and evaluate the work of staff who report to you.

Do you qualify for GS-15?

With experience: You need at least 1 year of specialized experience at the GS-14 level, in federal service or the equivalent in the private sector. This means work reviewing complex pension or retirement legislation, coordinating responses to Congress or agencies, developing congressional outreach materials, or analyzing private pension plan operations and regulation. Experience with or for a congressional committee or member's staff is preferred.

With education: No education is required.

How to apply well

What to send:

  • Resume of up to two pages with your name, contact information, specialized experience, and KSAs
  • Optional cover letter stating your interest and strengths
  • DD-214 or other official proof if you claim veterans' preference
  • Statement of service on unit letterhead if you are on active duty
  • CTAP or ICTAP eligibility documents if you apply under those programs

How you will be rated: You will be rated Gold, Silver, or Bronze based on how well you meet the minimum qualifications and five KSAs covering pension programs, written communication, congressional operations, legislative research, and leading others' work. Your rating can be lowered, or you can be rated Not Qualified, if your resume does not support your questionnaire answers.

Tips for this job:

  • Your resume must clearly show your specialized experience and each KSA, and only the first two pages will be reviewed.
  • If you claim veterans' preference, state it on your resume and attach your DD-214 or other proof, or you may not get credit.
  • Submit all required documents before midnight Eastern on the closing date, because missing documents can lower your rating.
