You sign in to USAJOBS with a Login.gov account, answer the questionnaire and upload your documents, then you submit. Answer the questionnaire honestly: your resume must show what you claim.
How they rate you: You will be rated on how well your resume and questionnaire answers match the qualifications. If you are minimally qualified, your resume is compared with your questionnaire answers, and you can lose consideration if you appear to have overstated your experience.
4 After you apply

For the interview, prepare three examples with the STAR method: the Situation, the Task, what you did (Action) and the Result.
If they choose you: a tentative offer, then a background check, a security clearance (Other), then the final offer with your start date.
Tips for this job:
- Your resume must clearly describe your minor mechanical, electrical or maintenance experience, since that is what qualifies you
- Include full contact information for your references on your resume
- Bring a valid form of identity that meets REAL ID or base access rules, and submit all required documents by 11:59 PM EST on the closing date
