Do you qualify for GS-7?

With experience: One year of specialized experience at the GS-5 level. This means reviewing shipments, invoices, or supply records, starting orders or supply requests, and using automated systems to track inventory. Paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work, counts.

With education: One full year of graduate-level education in a field such as logistics that shows the skills needed for this job. You can also combine education and experience, but your total must reach at least 100%. Divide your months of experience by 12, divide your graduate semester hours by 18, and add the two results. Foreign degrees must be evaluated by a recognized organization or given full U.S. credit.

How to apply well

What to send:

• Resume of two pages or less showing employer, job title, start and end dates (month and year), hours per week, and duties
• Responses to the online questionnaire
• Transcripts, if you qualify through education
• Cover letter (optional)
• Most recent performance appraisal, if applicable
• Documents proving eligibility for any hiring preference you claim

How you will be rated: Your full application package (resume, supporting documents, and questionnaire answers) is reviewed to see if you meet the qualifications. If your resume shows inflated qualifications or leaves out required information, you may be rated ineligible or lose consideration.

Tips for this job:

• Keep your resume to two pages or less and list the employer, job title, dates (month and year), and hours per week for each job, or your application may be marked incomplete.
• If you use education instead of experience, you must upload your transcript, or your education will not be counted.
• Submit by 11:59 PM EST on 10/30/2026, and allow up to an hour for uploaded files to clear the virus scan.
