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.

The job is open to the public, but you must be a U.S. citizen, a non-U.S. national, or someone who owes allegiance to the U.S. Applicants are sorted by hiring preferences such as military spouse or veteran preference, and you must submit proof of any eligibility you claim by the closing date.

  • Operate and maintain indoor or outdoor recreation facilities.
  • Set up recreation areas for scheduled activities and events.
  • Issue and check in boats, life vests and other recreation equipment.
  • Help customers in the sales store, including selling alcohol.
  • Check visitors and monitor park rules for safe use.
  • Contact appropriate authorities in emergencies.

Do you qualify for NF-1?

With experience: You need practical knowledge of recreational activities, rules and procedures, and the ability to safeguard cash and make change. Experience with recreation equipment and facilities is helpful but not required. Paid, unpaid and volunteer experience all count.

With education: Education cannot replace experience for this position. Foreign education counts only if you show proof it is equal to a U.S. education.

Licenses and certifications you need:

  • Valid driver's license

How to apply well

What to send:

  • Resume that clearly describes your relevant experience (required)
  • Proof of any preference or eligibility you claim, such as DD-214 for veterans
  • Transcript or diploma, if you claim education
  • SF-50 if you are a current or former federal employee claiming priority
  • Cover letter (optional)
  • Resume must not include photos or other inappropriate content

How you will be rated: Your resume, supporting documents and questionnaire answers are reviewed against the qualifications. If you appear to have inflated your experience to meet the requirements, you may lose consideration.

Tips for this job:

  • Your resume must clearly show your recreation experience, including any volunteer work, because the announcement says resumes are checked closely.
  • Send proof for any preference you claim, such as DD-214 or spouse documents, by the closing date or your application will be incomplete.
  • Education cannot replace experience here, so focus your resume on hands-on recreation or customer service work.
