Requirements
Conditions of Employment
Completion Of Financial Disclosure May Be Required.
Minimum Background Investigation (MBI) required.
Must be a commissioned examiner.
THIS IS A TEMPORARY ASSIGNMENT NOT-TO-EXCEED SIX (6) MONTHS. The selectee will be given a temporary promotion if eligible or be placed on a lateral detail if already serving at the advertised grade level on a permanent basis. If temporarily promoted, the temporary assignment may be ended earlier or extended for up to five (5) years based on management’s needs. It may also be made permanent without further competition.
Return Rights: If the duration of this temporary assignment is one (1) year or less, the employee will be returned to their permanent position of record. Return rights to the employee’s permanent position of record may be impacted if the temporary assignment lasts over one (1) year (including extensions beyond the initial appointment) and is in a different Division/Office. Office refers to the equivalent of a Division, not a geographic location. When both criteria apply, the temporary and permanent Division/Office must concur on the position to which the employee will be permanently returned to. If the employee’s permanent position of record is no longer available at the conclusion of the temporary assignment, the employee will be placed in a position that is comparable to his or her permanent position (i.e., same series, grade, and duty location). Employees will be notified of what their permanent placement will be prior to accepting temporary
assignments that are longer than one (1) year or being extended beyond one (1) year.
At the end of the temporary promotion (if temporarily promoted), the employee’s basic pay will be set at the rate received prior to being temporarily promoted, regardless of the length of the temporary promotion. The pay rate shall be increased to reflect pay increases (if any) received while temporarily promoted, as long as the resulting rate does not exceed the new range maximum.
Change in Duty Location: If the duty location of this temporary assignment is different from the employee’s permanent duty location of record, the employee's duty location may be changed to the temporary duty location for the duration of the assignment if the temporary assignment lasts over one (1) year (including extensions beyond the initial appointment)
Qualifications
Qualifying experience may be obtained in the private or public sector. Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic, religious/spiritual; community; student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience. Additional qualifications information can be found here.
To qualify, applicants must have completed at least one year of specialized experience equivalent to at least the grade 14 level or above in the Federal service. Specialized experience is defined as experience participating in projects or initiatives related to improving examination processes or program effectiveness.
Applicants must be Commissioned as an Examiner (Consumer Compliance or Risk Management).
Applicants must have met the qualification requirements (including selective placement factors – if any) for this position within 30 calendar days of the closing date of this announcement.
