Jobs for Federal Employees

“Status applicants” refers to those individuals who are current or former Federal civilian employees who hold or held non-temporary appointments in the competitive service, not the excepted service. Individuals with status are eligible for noncompetitive movement within the competitive service because they are now or previously were serving under career-type appointments in the competitive service.

Status applicants may be eligible for the following under merit promotion procedures:

• Restoration Rights
• CTAP/ICTAP
• Transfer
• Reinstatement
• Interchange Agreements (http://www.opm.gov/hr_practitioners/lawsregulations/appointingauthorities/index.asp#InterchangeAgreementsWithOtherMeritSystems)

NOTE: Certain veterans eligible under the Veterans Employment Opportunities Act (VEOA) may also apply and be considered under vacancy announcements limited to status candidates. For information on VEOA eligibility, please visit: http://www.opm.gov/veterans/html/vetguide.asp#Veterans_Employment_Opprtunities_Act_of_1998.
