Since the elimination of the complicated Federal application, Federal resumes have become the document of choice to land a Federal job. Usually accompanied by KSA's, Federal resumes have become so determinant in the Federal hiring process that they sometime have more weight than interviews in the eyes of recruiters.

It would be however a grave mistake to think that you can use your standard resume to apply for Federal positions. Not only is the format different in terms of structure, length and content, but a Federal resume must include all the information required by a job announcement — not following these guidelines will irremediably get you eliminated.

It is also primordial to include specific keywords, as government recruiters use Resumix, a software that scans and selects the resumes that will actually be read. Once it made the cut through Resumix, your resume will then be rated according to Federal Qualification Standards. It is therefore imperative that your resume is customized to the job announcement as, contrary to most civilian companies, the Federal Government is very strict in terms of candidates closely matching qualifications.

Also known as Knowledge, Skills and Abilities, a KSA — or KSAO — is a series of narrative statements that must accompany Federal resumes when applying to Government job openings. A determing factor in the hiring process, a KSA is usually rated using a point system, from 1 to 10.

Written in the first person, KSA's feature a series of 3 to 10 questions that aim at showcasing in details how your profile fits the requirements of the job opening.

   Knowledge refers to an organized body of information usually of a factual or procedural nature
   which, if applied, makes adequate performance on the job possible.
   Skills refer to the — mental, manual or verbal — manipulation of data, things or people.
   Abilities refer to the ability to perform a mental or physical activity at the present time.

Because Federal resumes & KSA's are so specific, preparing them yourself will require several hours of fastidious homework, with the risk of not delivering a satisfactory document being high, which would disqualify you.

With years of experience, familiarity with the latest Government guidelines and the right certification in Federal resume & KSA writing, a professional writer will make this task easy. He will customize your resume to the job announcement and prepare the accompanying KSA's, which will assure that both documents are perfectly matching the job announcements.
