How You Will Be Evaluated
You will be evaluated for this job based on how well you meet the qualifications above.
Applications will not be rated and ranked as this announcement is for noncompetitive reassignment or change-to-lower grade only. Applications will be evaluated to determine eligibility based on responses to the online questionnaire, which determines your basic eligibility for consideration (appointment type, successful performance, current permanent grade).
Note: If you are eligible based on your responses to the online questionnaire, your SSA-45 will be used to verify whether or not you meet the minimum qualification requirements for the position(s) you indicate. If your SSA-45 does not support your qualifications for a position you indicated, your name will be removed from further consideration for that position only. Also, if you indicate you are not eligible in the online questionnaire, your application will not receive further consideration.
Please ensure you answer all questions and follow all instructions carefully. Errors or omissions may affect your evaluation. When answering the questionnaire, remember that your responses are subject to verification by the selecting official.
