To be considered for final selection, applicants must achieve a passing score on the structured interview.

Rule of Many: This announcement uses the set number of highest ranked eligibles method under 5 CFR § 332.402. All applicants tied at the cut line will be referred. We will provide the selecting official with a sufficient number of names, when available, to consider at least three candidates per vacancy. If fewer than three eligible and available candidates per vacancy result, we will expand the group in accordance with our pre-announced supplement strategy and OPM policy.

Veterans' preference points are added to the passing score of candidates eligible for either 10-point or 5-point preference. Disabled veterans with a 10% or more service-connected disability are placed at the top of a certificate of eligibles regardless of score. Ties in ratings are broken by veterans' preference eligibility, that is, preference eligible candidates are listed ahead of non-preference eligibles within each rating.

Referral: If you are among the top qualified candidates, your application may be referred to a selecting official for consideration. You may be required to participate in a selection interview.

If you are a displaced or surplus Federal employee (eligible for the Career Transition Assistance Plan(CTAP)/Interagency Career Transition Assistance Plan (ICTAP)) you must be rated as "well qualified" to receive special selection priority. Well-Qualified includes those applicants whose knowledge, skills, and abilities clearly exceed the minimum qualification requirements for the position.
