2 vacancies (Washington, DC and Irving, TX)

It may close early. The agency may stop considering applicants early, because the first cut-off for referral is set and only the first 100 applicants get first consideration.

Can you apply?

Yes, if you are a U.S. citizen: this job is open to everyone.

  • Displaced federal employeesFederal employees who lost or are losing their job through a reduction in force (CTAP, ICTAP, RPL).
  • Open to everyoneAny U.S. citizen or national can apply. Some jobs also accept non-citizens; the announcement says so.

Other groups listed above may get extra consideration, for example veterans' preference.

Open to U.S. citizens, nationals, and people who owe allegiance to the United States. Federal employees may have priority under career transition programs (CTAP, ICTAP or RPL) if they meet the requirements and submit the listed documents.

What you would do

  • Work with internal and external stakeholders to refine requirements, timelines and risks.
  • Turn raw data into dashboards, statistical reports and infographics for workforce decisions.

Do you qualify for GS-13?

With experience: You need one year of specialized experience at the GS-12 level or equivalent. This means doing HR information systems work, such as checking that systems follow policies, monitoring systems for problems, collecting and analyzing HR data, or helping with data validation and testing.

With education: Education from a school accredited by an accrediting body recognized by the U.S. Department of Education can count toward qualifications. The announcement does not list a specific degree or coursework.

How to apply well

What to send:

  • 2-page resume showing job title, duties, employer name and phone, employer address, start and end dates (MM/YY), hours per week, and whether we may contact your supervisor
  • DD-214 or other discharge proof if you are a veteran
  • SF-15 if you claim 10-point veterans' preference
  • ICTAP notice, most recent performance rating and SF-50 if you claim ICTAP priority
  • SF-50 if you are a current or former federal employee
  • SF-50 and a statement about your appointment if you are a current or former political appointee

How you will be rated: You are rated on how well you meet the qualifications, using your resume, questionnaire answers and assessments. You must meet or beat the USA Hire cut score on competencies such as teamwork, attention to detail and decision making, and overstating your experience or cheating can get you removed.

Tips for this job:

  • Include dates, hours per week and your supervisor contact permission on your 2-page resume, since missing details can lower your rating.
  • Do not copy the duties or questionnaire text into your resume, because the agency will not count it as proof of experience.
  • Set aside about two hours for the USA Hire assessments and complete them soon after you receive the link.
