In order to qualify, applicants must be eligible for appointment under the 30% or more disabled veterans hiring authority. The 30% or More Disabled Veteran hiring authority allows an agency to non-competitively appoint any veteran with a 30% or more service-connected disability. You are eligible if you: are retired from active military service with a service-connected disability rating of 30% or more, OR have a rating by the Department of Veterans Affairs showing a compensable service-connected disability of 30% or more. This authority can be used to make temporary (at least 60 days but not to exceed 1 year) or term (more than 1 year, but not more than 4) appointments in the competitive service. There is no grade level restriction. There is no requirement that you be converted to a permanent position, but an agency has the authority to convert such a position to a permanent position if it chooses to do so. The agency would first place you on a time limited appointment of at least 60 days and could then convert that appointment to a permanent appointment at management's discretion. When the authority is used to meet a time-limited need, however, you will not be converted to a permanent appointment. You must provide acceptable documentation of your preference or appointment eligibility which is listed under the "Required Documents" section of this announcement. All applicants must be aware that this announcement DOES NOT guarantee selection for employment, only a method in which to be considered for employment. In order to be considered all applicants submitting their information for this file must submit applicable documents listed in the "Required Documents" section below. Limit your resume to no more than two (2) pages. If more than two pages are submitted, only the first two pages will be reviewed to determine your eligibility and qualifications. Your full resume will be made available to the hiring manager if you are referred.

Education

Some series do have positive education requirements that must be met. Please review the series listed above in the "duties" section which provides a link to the qualifications standards for each series and will advise if there is an education requirement. If there is a basic education requirement that must be met failure to provide copies of your college transcripts may result in a rating of "Ineligible". If substituting education for specialized experience, you must submit proof of your qualifying education. Failure to provide college transcripts may result in a rating of 'Ineligible'. Education must be obtained from an accredited institution recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. What is a qualifying educational institution or program? Foreign education must be reviewed by an organization recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. For special instructions pertaining to foreign education and a list of organizations that can evaluate foreign education, see the Department of Education website. How You Will Be Evaluated

To determine if you are qualified for particular positions, a review of your resume and supporting documentation will be made. As hiring officials look to fill positions using the 30% Disabled Veteran hiring authority, they may be provided applicant information kept in this file based on the qualifications for the position being filled. These qualifications will be based on the position as well as the information contained in the resume provided by the applicant and verification of eligibility. Overstating your qualifications and/or experience in your application may result in removal from consideration. This announcement is being used as a repository.
