What is ADS?

The Avue Digital Services (ADS) Staffing Module allows Human Resource Specialists to review applications on-line, generate certificates (referral lists) and much more. It allows managers to view on-line vacancy announcements and referral lists, and to make selections on-line. ADS allows applicants to do the following tasks on-line: establish personal work history profiles, view vacancy announcements, and apply for vacancies within the Justice components that use the service.

• creating position descriptions

• accepting on-line job applications; and


• facilitating the rating and ranking of job applicants.

You may use ADS to apply for most* vacancies in the components listed below:

Justice Management Division;  Offices, Boards, and Divisions, including Litigating Divisions;  Office of the Inspector General;  Office of Justice Programs;  Executive Office for Immigration Review;  Executive Office for U.S. Trustees
