Navigating USAJOBS & Introduction to Federal Resume Writing

Location: Virtual

Army Civilian Careers invites you to participate in a virtual informational session on federal resume writing, navigating USAJOBS website, including paid internships and fellowships in the federal government. We are a values-based community of nearly 300,000 federal civilian employees, much like those in other U.S. Departments, e.g., State, Justice, and Education. These are strictly civilian positions and NOT MILITARY.

Applying for employment on USAJOBS can be a challenging process, but we are here to help! In this session we will walk through the application process to include the questionnaire, discuss resume formats, preferences, required documents to include, and how to align your experience with the job qualifications. This class is designed specifically to help you develop your federal resume and address key areas in the job announcement to make you an eligible applicant. In this session we will cover:

• The Student Intern Program
• The Army Fellows Program
• How to create a USAJOBs account
• Applying for federal jobs
• How to navigate USAJOBS
• Application announcement information
• Beginning steps to writing a federal resume
