Do you feel overwhelmed by the Federal job hunting process?  Have you submitted multiple resumes, only to get a notice stating that you were "not referred to the selecting official" or "you did not meet the basic qualifications for this job"?  Like a lot of federal job-hunters, do you think the system is 'fixed' and that no matter how qualified you are, you won't get hired because you don't have the inside track on these jobs?

If you answered yes to these questions, we understand your frustration.  However, based on our years of experience counseling job-hunters, the main reason applicants are not getting the job is because they don't have a comprehensive application package, they don't meet the area of consideration for jobs that are restricted to: current or former federal employees; veterans; students; ICTAP/CTAP; etc., or they didn't follow the application instructions carefully and omitted pertinent application information. 

While the government's stated goal is to make the federal application process friendlier and easier for applicants, the fact is: you're the one who is the petitioner, the one who is asking for something from the other party. In other words, the government agency has something you want...a job...so you must be the one to make the greater effort.

How well you understand the system, and portray yourself and your previous work experience is a critically important factor in a successful job search. There are so many components to the federal job search process, that even the most educated individual can get lost in the maze.  That is why our Federal Counselors stand ready to help you make that "highly qualified" list and subsequently, get called in for the job interview.

Premium Counseling Package: $95

Are you ready to invest in your future?  Here are the topics that we will cover during your one-hour consultation:

• The Application Method: On-line, Paper, Email, or Fax 

• On-line Application Systems: Are they Question-based or Answer-based?

• Information Required: Supplemental Forms, SF-50, DD-214, Transcripts, etc.

• Compliance Information: Will your resume pass the first test?

• Length of Resume: Is there a one-size fits all resume?

• KSAs: What are they and who has to respond to them?

• Keywords: What are they and how do I find them?

• Promotion Potential: What is the job's growth potential?

• Merit System Principles: What agencies are governed by these laws?

• Special Hiring Authorities: Veterans Preference; Persons with Disabilities, etc.

• The Rating & Ranking Method: Rule of Three or Categorical Rating

• Classification Standards: What jobs do you qualify for? 

• Pay Levels: How do you determine the appropriate pay grade/level?

• Specialized Experience: What do they mean by this statement?

The Results: You will gain in-depth knowledge of the federal hiring process, trim months off your federal job search, and gain employment faster...and often at a higher rate of pay than you expected.

Regardless of occupation, pay level, or federal experience, our clients have one thing in common...they needed help navigating the complex federal employment system.  They needed someone to help them develop a strategic plan that would enable them to focus on applying for jobs that would result in a rating of 'highly qualified', and that's exactly what we do.  We point our clients in the right direction...we draw a map that will help you reach your destination in the quickest way possible...and we help you avoid unnecessary roadblocks along the way.

Don't miss another job opportunity or spend hours applying for a job where you won't receive a 'highly qualified' rating.
