Open to the public, but you must be a U.S. citizen, national, or someone who owes allegiance to the U.S. Career transition program eligibles (CTAP/ICTAP), veterans, and certain family members of veterans may also apply and may get priority.

Do you qualify for GS-15?

With experience: You need at least one year of specialized experience at a level comparable to GS-14 in the public or private sector. Your experience must show four of six listed areas, such as developing research proposals, overseeing project teams, reviewing staff products, supervising staff, and representing an agency before others.

With education: Education cannot replace experience at this grade. Your education must be combined with the specialized experience described above.

How to apply well

What to send:

  • Resume showing job dates by month and year, hours per week, salary, and duties
  • Names and phone numbers of current or past supervisors on your resume
  • Completed occupational questionnaire
  • College transcripts if you use education to qualify (unofficial copies are accepted at this stage)
  • DD-214 if you claim 5-point veterans' preference, or an official statement of service if on active duty
  • SF-15 if you claim 10-point veterans' preference
  • For CTAP/ICTAP: agency notice, most recent performance rating, and most recent SF-50
  • Cover letter is optional

How you will be rated: Your resume must show you meet the qualifications, and your questionnaire answers are compared with your resume. Rating yourself higher than your resume supports can lower your rating or remove you from consideration; you must also complete an online USA Hire assessment, and selected applicants may face a structured panel interview of 2 to 4 members.

Tips for this job:

  • List month and year for each job, plus hours per week and salary, on your resume, since missing details may cost you credit.
  • Submit your college transcripts if you rely on education, and make sure your application includes the questionnaire and all documents by the closing deadline.
  • Show specific examples of supervising staff, reviewing products, and representing an agency, because these match the required experience areas.
