Find tools to assist you, as a 10-Point Preference Eligible, to successfully apply for a Federal job. These tools include assistance in creating your Job Search Agent, direct links to Executive Branch agency employment sites, and links to specific disability resources for you to review.

To receive a competitive evaluation of your qualifications your best alternative is to apply to an open vacancy announcement. This allows you to tailor your resume specifically to the requirements of the job and to respond to any job specific questions associated with the vacancy announcement.

USAJOBS provides the capability for you to create a Search Agent which will allow you to identify job vacancies for which you would like to apply by occupational title, grade level, salary, and location. As job opportunities open meeting your criteria, you will receive e-mail notification of the opening as well as links directly to the vacancy announcement and, when available, you may apply directly on-line. You may elect to be notified daily, weekly, bi-weekly or monthly and you can create multiple search agents. You may begin creating your Search Agent by clicking on the "Create My Search Agent" link provided below. You must have a USAJOBS account to begin the process.
