Do you qualify for GS-9?

With experience: You need one year of specialized experience comparable to GS-7 work. It includes providing financial entitlement and military pay help, resolving financial problems, giving technical and fiscal advice, and using automated financial systems to prepare and analyze statistical reports.

With education: A master's degree or equivalent graduate degree, or two full years of progressively higher graduate education leading to one, in a field such as accounting or business administration. You can also combine education and experience, but the percentages must add up to at least 100%. Foreign education must be evaluated or given full U.S. credit.

Licenses and certifications you need:

  • Documents proving veterans' or other preference, if you claim it
  • Responses to the online questionnaire

How you will be rated: You are rated on how well you meet the qualifications, using your resume, supporting documents, and questionnaire answers. If you inflate your qualifications or experience, you may lose consideration, and missing information can make your application incomplete.

Tips for this job:

  • Your resume must be two pages or less and list hours worked per week for each job, or it may be marked incomplete.
  • If you qualify through education, upload your transcripts, or you will be rated ineligible.
  • Only your resume is included automatically, so re-select any other documents in the online application, and allow up to an hour for uploads to clear the virus scan.
