Career Transition Assistance Programs: These programs apply to employees who have been involuntarily separated from a federal service position within the competitive service or Federal service employees whose positions have been deemed surplus or no longer needed. To receive selection priority for this position, you must: (1) meet CTAP or ICTAP eligibility criteria; (2) be rated well-qualified for the position with a score of 85 or above; and, (3) submit the appropriate documentation to support your CTAP or ICTAP eligibility. For more information visit: http://www.opm.gov/rif/employee_guides/career_transition.asp.
You will be evaluated for this job based on how well you meet the qualifications above.
Once your complete application is received, it will be evaluated to determine qualifications for the position. If you meet the qualification requirement, your application will be placed in one of three categories using category rating: Highly Qualified, Well Qualified, or Qualified based on your score. Within these categories, qualified applicants eligible for veteran's preference will receive selection priority over non-preference eligibles. Veterans' preference points do not apply in category rating. The amount of experience or training will not itself be accepted as proof of qualification for any grade. Your application will be assessed based on demonstrated experience in the competencies/ knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) identified below. Your relevant personal, educational, and work experiences will be evaluated on the following fundamental competencies:
1. Attention to Detail
2. Customer Service
3. Problem Solving
4. Oral Communication
The Category Rating Process does not add veterans' preference points or apply the "rule of three" but protects the rights of Veterans by placing them ahead of non-preference eligibles within each quality category. Veterans' preference eligibles who meet the minimum qualification requirements and who have a compensable service-connected disability of at least 10 percent will be listed in the highest quality category (except in the case of scientific or professional positions at the GS-09 level or higher).
