Federal Resume Guidelines

Following these guidelines will compel hiring departments to reach out to you for an interview:

  1. . Include the dates of employment, salary, address of the company, supervisor’s name, and phone number.
  2. Follow every detail of the how to apply and required documents sections of the vacancy announcement.
  3. Employ strong verbs, keywords and core competencies to “tell your story,” with strong accomplishments, and always include qualitative and quantitative results.

Writing a federal resume means following federal resume guidelines to ensure hiring managers are able to find the exact details they are looking for with just a quick glance. Our Headline format leads the hiring official right to the specific areas of interest and details about past employment experience you have.

Client Testimonials

I was selected for the jobs I applied for both times that I made a career change. After serving 28 years in the US Army, Lee made the process of rebranding me from a Military officer to a Multifaceted professional a super easy one. The resume he wrote highlighted my important milestones and demonstrated the values I bring to the federal government. I believe that I received more calls for interviews and selected more jobs than if I had used a self-written resume.

Upon retiring from the military five years ago, I started my journey and transition to Civilian life and employment. Your organization has been an asset to my career progression from day one. I have been successful in getting selected by name twice for promotion to higher pay grades and positions. When I submit my CareerPro Global prepared resume through the USAJOBS website, I know I will receive (and have every time), a notification that my resume has gone through the computer selection process and has been referred to the hiring authority. I would not be in the position that I am today and the positions that I’ve been chosen for in the past without the assistance of the CareerPro Global staff. Thank you all so much.

USAJOBS Resume Writing

The USAJOBS.gov hiring portal typically has thousands of federal government job listings on any given day. Some applicants are quickly disqualified because they fail to follow exact guidelines, which means your federal resume needs to be precise and follow the specifications exactly. Federal hiring managers want to know you can follow instructions before they consider your actual qualifications. This one process eliminates more candidates that can be imagined.

Federal government resumes must be complete, with information not ordinarily found on other resumes—including the general series and grade you are applying for, full addresses of previous employers, supervisor names and phone numbers, salary history and a detailed listing of your education and training. Your USAJOBS/federal resume should be tailored to address special experience and technical skills, and hone in on executive leadership with a focus on Challenge, Context, Action and Result stories.

Once you develop your resume offline and then upload it to your USAJOBS profile, you can keep it in the system for whatever amount of time you need, and upload multiple versions for different applications.

What Should Be Included In A Federal Resume?

When you look for federal resume writing services, you want to feel confident the writers will include all the relevant information a federal resume should contain. Here are some things you should communicate to your resume writer:

  • Start and end dates for every job you include on the resume
  • Number of hours per week each job required you to work
  • The level of the job, such as director, manager, engineer, trainer or other team member
  • The address, supervisor name and salary for each position

A critical part of the resume is proving you have the ability to perform the tasks detailed in the job description of the announcement. Your experience should convey that you can handle these duties and have performed similar work in the past. In other words, you need to prove you have the skills and experience to perform in the job.

Federal job applications should highlight qualitative and quantitative numbers to show why you would make a good hire. If you have data on how much money you saved your company by changing the way something is done or how many times you performed a task each week, you should give this information to your federal resume writer. The more specific and results oriented your resume is, the better. In other words, quantitative and qualitative results are important to emphasize.

The people doing the hiring want to find candidates who can step right into the position. Your resume should reflect confidence you can perform this job. You must show that you have the equivalent experience or education level the job vacancy announcement is requiring. Using all best practices, that is what our federal resume service delivers.

Customize Your Resume For The Job You Want

Every resume you submit for a federal/SES job should be tailored to the position. You will find specifications for each job that you need to address. This is another reason hiring a federal resume writer makes sense. Our writers have the time to sort through the requirements and experience necessary to polish your resume, so it is competitive and uses all best practices. They understand what the government agencies look for in a resume and can develop yours according to those specifications.

How Often Should You Update Your USAJOBS Resume?

With federal applications and USAJOBS resumes specifically, a one-size-fits-all approach will not work to get you the job you want. Professional federal resumes need to represent you as a perfect fit for each opening, which means your USAJOBS resume should be updated to show specific experience and keywords that fit with the job listing. You are far more likely to be invited for an interview if the answers to your assessment questions and the information on your resume line up to reflect your suitability for the position. You should always keep your USAJOBS resume updated. Each year you should add to your experience and accomplishments, as well as when you transition into a new job.
