Professional Federal Resumes
Federal job applications can be complex and exhausting; requiring a familiar and knowledgeable amount of insight into the various Federal Job sites including USAJOBS, and the meticulous screening and referral process. Through our Federal Resume Service Program, we work one-on-one with you to extract all the pertinent job-related information that is needed for your targeted position. We communicate your value through impact - results statements.
Due to the computer screening process utilized by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), it is vitally important that position-specific 'keywords' are identified. While highlighting your achievements, we carefully construct them into the 'content and organization' that is needed to relay your "specialized experience".
Federal Resumes are usually 3-5 pages in length, depending on individual experience and targeted position. You will need to provide a copy of the job announcement you are targeting and detailed information regarding past positions (up to 10 years, if applicable) to include: transcripts, training certificates, awards, military service related information, evaluations, and volunteer experience.
Let us do the work for you!

WHAT ARE KSAs - CORE COMPETENCIES & QUALIFICATIONS
on Federal Job Announcements?
on Federal Job Announcements?
KSAs - Core Competencies & Qualifications:
KSAs - Knowledge, Skills & Abilities [also referred to as Core Competencies or Qualifications - and usually numbered or lettered] are another screening tool that the Federal government hiring system uses to determine if you are the right person for a position. KSAs were created to replace the civil service exam that was used many years ago to rank candidates for consideration.
KSAs require applicants to write short-answer responses to a range of questions from basic skills to more complex technical or position-specific knowledge requirements. Less than stellar KSAs will likely not get you an interview. KSAs are now built into the Federal resume, although they are still often used as a deciding factor when hiring managers are making their final hiring decisions. So if it comes down to you and one other candidate, the KSAs carry the weight!
We utilize the CCAR (Context, Challenge, Action and Results) method for creating your KSAs. We simplify the process and leverage the KSA requirements as another way to market your experiences, prove your worth, and provide insight into what you can offer the agency.
Many vacancy announcements now request that you demonstrate KSAs within the resume. For these announcements, we can include your KSA requirements throughout your resume by highlighting your accomplishments and demonstrating your abilities through expertly crafted example statements!
For positions that list KSA / Core Competencies / Qualifications requirements separately, we skillfully develop your example statements.
