2) PART I Applying for Jobs at NNSY using USAJOBS


The information provided may help get you started in using USAJOBS and Application Manager.

To get started, follow these steps:

1. Go to www.usajobs.gov


2.  Click “Sign in or Create an Account”


3.  Complete personal information


4.  Click “I agree. Create my Account”


At this point you have two options to get your resume into USAJOBS: you can build a resume or upload an existing resume.  


Upload a Resume. Uploaded resumes must be less than 3 MB and in one of the following document formats: .doc, .docx. .jpg, .pdf or .rtf. 

Take some time to review and update your information, when you are ready, follow the USAJOBS on-screen instructions for uploading a resume.


Note: Uploaded resumes are not “searchable,” which means recruiters will not be able to find your resume unless you submit it to a specific USAJOBS vacancy announcement.


USAJOBS Resume Builder. You can copy and paste the information from your resume into the corresponding fields in USAJOBS resume builder. Be sure to review and update your information as necessary.


USAJOBS does not limit your work experience examples however, the character limits for some fields in USAJOBS are limited so your resume may need to be edited to fit in USAJOBS.

 
Note:  You can have up to five resumes saved to your USAJOBS account (two uploaded resumes and three USAJOBS Resume Builder resumes). When you apply to an announcement in USAJOBS, you pick which resume you want to submit.
