You will be required to complete all steps to be considered for this position. PLEASE NOTE: Failure to submit the information outlined below will render your application ineligible for consideration for this position.

Step #1: Applicants will be evaluated and assessed through an online application process. Applicants will be required to answer a series of occupational assessment questions linked to the competencies determined necessary for successful job performance. These questions will be used to rank applicants according to relative merit for this position. Once the online application process is complete, your application will be reviewed to determine if you meet all requirements outlined in the Qualifications section of the vacancy announcement. Qualified applicants will be assigned a score by the automated system depending on possession of the knowledge, skills, abilities and/or competencies required for this position. The numerical rating you receive will be adjusted if it is determined that you have inflated your qualifications and/or experience in order to more accurately reflect your abilities as outlined in your narrative responses, resume and supporting documents. Only the most qualified candidates will be referred for further consideration. This score will account for 50% of the total score that will be used to determine your overall ranking.

Step #2: You MUST also submit a resume or other form of application. You have an option of completing a resume within this automated staffing system or submitting a resume that you have in another format or maintained in personal files. Please follow the process outlined at the end of the series of occupational assessment questions regarding submitting your resume or other application form.

Step #3: The highest scoring candidates will then be invited and required to take a writing skills assessment. The invitation to take the writing assessment must be accepted and the test completed by the deadline outlined in the invitation in order to be considered. Candidates that apply will be invited to complete the writing assessment soon after the closing date of this announcement. The score obtained on the writing skills assessment will account for 50% of the overall score used to determine those who are best qualified for consideration. Additional information on the writing skills assessment is contained in the candidate preparation guide. The preparation guide can be obtained by clicking on the following link: https://hraccess-assessment.tsa.dhs.gov/Forms/WSAPrepGuide.pdf

PLEASE NOTE: Candidates eligible for the writing skills assessment will be required to travel at their own expense to the test location. The results for candidates who take the writing skills assessment are good for one year from the date the test was taken.
