In most cases, the federal government requires five ECQs for federal positions:
Each ECQ will be assessed through an SES interview, and we recommend developing roughly half page summaries of at least one example per ECQ. We will work with you to prepare these detailed statements that follow the federal government model for each individual factor, as shown:

I am pleased to inform you that I was selected for the FAA SES position you helped me with in the application process. As of now, I have received a tentative offer letter, and pending the security clearance process, I hope to receive a final offer letter in the next 30 days. Once again, I am very appreciative of your support in helping me to complete my first SES application submission. All the best,
CareerPro and Lee are indispensable. I couldn’t have done my ECQs without them. I think I’m a good writer. I think many SES candidates are. But ECQs are a form of writing that most of us don’t have experience with; our writing skills don’t translate to this unusual genre. I drafted ECQs that I thought were really good – I thought I had followed all the OPM suggestions – but then the hiring agency critiqued my draft heavily. I wasn’t sure how to implement their suggestions for improvement, and I knew I didn’t have time to figure it out: I was slammed at work.
So, I turned to CareerPro, and Lee did not disappoint. He was every bit as good as the reviews said he was. He rewrote my ECQs in ways that never would have occurred to me. They sailed through OPM on the first try. I can’t thank him enough. ECQ-writing really is an art form, and Lee is a master at it.
This company is very professional, and Michelle was awesome! She was able to get my information through their step-by-step system and put it in the right format. The final product was perfect. It got me the SES position I applied for. I’m very pleased with Michelle’s professionalism and technical skills. Thank you!
I had the opportunity to meet and work with Karl at CareerPro Global, Inc. From the beginning Karl was attentive to my needs and concerns developing my Executive Core Qualifications (ECQ) document. He answered every single question I had in a professional manner and ensured I understood and felt good about the ECQ development process. He was always timely with his responses and always ensured any concerns I had were addressed. He explained everything in a clear and concise manner. Working with Karl was great and developing my ECQs with him was a pleasurable experience. I would highly recommend his services at CareerPro Global.
CareerPro Global (Michelle) helped me write my ECQ’s. My experience was top-notch. They were always professional, punctual, knowledgeable, and provided expert guidance. The service was well worth the money. It was an investment. OPM approved my submission without edits or comments. Thank you Michelle and Career Pro Global.
I secured Lee’s services for my ECQs and my 5 Page SES Resume. The product turned out excellent, on time and I made it through all three levels of review (without edits) on my first try (FLETC, DHS, OPM). I am now certified, and a load of pressure is off my back. To me, the fees for Career Pro Plus are merely an investment in yourself, much like a graduate class. Don’t spend endless weekends trying to write this yourself! (Set Yourself Free and Hire Lee). Take the family out for ice cream instead, let Lee handle the ECQs.
I passed the QRB on the first time and was promoted to SES. The consultation with my editor was eye-opening. The writing was on the mark. I highly recommend CareerPro Global as a company that will work with you to get your ECQs in great shape and able to withstand OPM scrutiny. I’m extremely happy I reached out to them.
I had the opportunity to work with Stefanie S. in developing my ECQs for a move into an SES role. Stefanie is an excellent writer and a real pro in extracting the relevant parts of my experience for meeting all the requirements of each specific ECQ. Moreover, she was a pleasure to work with, always responding within 24 hours (including on weekends and holidays!), patient with multiple drafts and revisions, and encouraging in conversations when brainstorming possible stories to share in the ECQs. I was impressed with how painless she made the process, and how quickly it was done, thanks to her expert guidance and help. I will be encouraging my friends to use CareerPro Global when they are ready for their next career move, and I will pass along Stefanie’s name.
Barbara Adams was my initial point of contact and Lee was my career advisor and executive writer. Barbara worked quickly to qualify me and set the pace for my requirements and short suspense. Lee was simply fantastic and provided a professional, compelling, on-time application.
I will not hesitate to work with both professionals in the future. I strongly recommend CareerPro Global to anyone who is interested in advancing their career search with a professional, compelling resume that provides the critical competitive advantage required in today’s job market.
I can’t imagine navigating this process alone. It’s an intense, introspective process that challenges your view of yourself and what you perceive to be your accomplishments. An objective expert that is on your side makes an incredible difference. The support and advice made this journey much less painful!
I received the QRB approval letter from OPM today. Jim, nice job with the ECQ’s – much appreciated!
My ECQs were approved! Thank you for all your help (and patience with me).
Even though you don’t have to submit ECQ essays anymore, you will still need to contemplate your recent experiences through the new ECQ “lenses” and be very comfortable sharing examples of specific challenges, actions, and results. The first step in doing that is getting them from your memory onto paper. We have a proven coaching process to help you think deeply and articulate recent experiences that demonstrate the new ECQs using specific challenges, actions, and results.
At first, you may think that developing your ECQ summaries yourself would be more efficient. But in fact, developing them yourself could decrease your chances of getting the job or even securing an interview. The main issue is that you do not understand the best practices for presenting ECQ examples that are recent, show your executive potential, and express the various competencies.
The agencies you submit to know exactly what they’re looking for in an ECQ and will pass you over if you don’t demonstrate the right qualities. In order to stand out from the competition, you need every advantage you can manage.
At CareerPro Global, Inc., we have worked with thousands of aspiring executives and understand the best ways to command attention and interest with an ECQ example. We draw on proven techniques that have worked for previous clients to craft the best ECQ summaries possible. When you enlist our services, you make a commitment to getting that federal job.
Applying for federal jobs takes a lot of time and effort, but the payoff is worth it when you land your dream job. You can’t leave anything to chance. That’s why so many people trust our ECQ writing services.
Here are just a few benefits of working with us:
If you currently have a job or care for your family, you probably don’t have much free time. Letting us coach you through thinking of examples, and then trusting us with the writing frees up your time for other pursuits.
We have written ECQs for so many people, we know what to say to be effective and capture attention. You can trust the quality of our writing because so many have used us before and received the results they wanted. We know the right words and phrasing to pique the interest of job screeners.
Too many ECQs wander from the topic. You can get caught up in what you’re writing about and fail to provide the evidence the government is looking for in your ECQ. Our writing services keep you on target. They ensure a laser focus on the topic at hand and skilled, smart writing that accurately presents your qualifications.
This review is FREE, and we will determine if we can indeed qualify you to become one of the next SES leaders within the federal government.
Once you have an excellent, professional SES package, you can apply for many announcements. After working with us, you will have a “Master SES Application” package that you can tailor to new positions, as needed. The Technical and Managerial factors may change, as will the job titles and announcement numbers, but you will use the rest of the package over and over again. You will be ready for the next SES job vacancy announcement!
In order to make the best impression, a consistent approach is very helpful. We recommend that you hire us to prepare all four sections on your behalf to present a consistent, job-winning package that will properly portray your skills and qualifications.
Our certified professional resume writers will work closely with you to identify the leadership skills, relevant experience, people skills, and achievements in your background and assemble the appropriate materials in the format expected by the federal government.
The competencies are the foundation of the Executive Core Qualifications (ECQs) and should be reflected throughout your examples.
Below is a chart of each ECQ definition. We address your ECQ responses in this CCAR model, as described above, required by OPM, and incorporate the respective core competencies below into each ECQ Summary.
Executive Core Qualifications must be written in a CCAR (Challenge-Context-Action-Result) formula, while demonstrating the 15 competencies. Thinking about, selecting, writing, and preparing to verbally discuss ECQ examples is both an art and science. Our signature ECQ builders coupled with one-on-one career coaching by our senior SES writers has led to numerous clients receiving SES job offers.
Just remember, it’s not what content and stories you wish to incorporate into your ECQ that counts, it’s how you present them through the lens of what OPM is looking for in your examples.
