Learn more about Federal benefits programs at: USAJOBS Help Center - Benefits
Eligibility for benefits depends on the type of position you hold and whether your position is full-time, part-time or intermittent. Contact the hiring agency for more information on the specific benefits offered.
How you will be evaluated
You will be evaluated for this job based on how well you meet the qualifications above.
Your application includes your resumé, responses to the online questions, and required supporting documents. Please be sure that your resumé includes detailed information to support your qualifications for this position; failure to provide sufficient evidence in your resumé may result in a "not qualified" determination.
To be considered for this position, you must complete all required steps in the process. In addition to the application and questionnaire, this position requires an online assessment (USA Hire) that measures critical general competencies needed to perform the job. Cheating on this assessment may result in your removal from consideration.
Category rating will be used to rank and select eligible candidates, based upon your responses to the online questions, regarding your experience, education, and training related to this position. Your application may be reviewed by a Subject Matter Expert. If qualified, you will be assigned to one of three quality level categories:
Gold (highest quality category): Highly proficient with an overall comprehensive level of knowledge, skills, and abilities of the job.
Silver (middle quality category): Has a solid and comprehensive understanding. Can perform the required tasks efficiently and is proficient in applying the knowledge, skills, and abilities of the position.
Bronze (minimally qualified category) An overall basic level of knowledge, skills and abilities of the job.
In all cases, preference-eligibles on the certificate(s) will be considered. However, preference-eligibles do not "float" to the top of the list of referred candidates nor have extra points added to any numerical score, and selection of a non-preference-eligible does not require "passover" procedures. Veteran's preference will be followed as far as administratively feasible.
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. We will not reimburse costs related to the interview such as travel to and from the interview site.
Rating: Your application will be evaluated in the following areas: Accountability, Customer Service, Flexibility, Interpersonal Skills, Decisiveness, Problem Solving, Resilience.
The Federal Supervisor Assessment questions target seven critical supervisory competencies: accountability, customer service, decisiveness, flexibility, interpersonal skills, problem solving, and resilience.
When FinCEN completes its hiring, the remaining list of qualified candidates may be shared with additional Treasury bureaus. You will have an opportunity to opt-in if you would like your name, application material, and assessment results shared to be considered for employment with additional Treasury bureaus. There is no guarantee of further consideration, and you can continue to explore other job opportunity announcements.
