1. Create a USAJOBS Account

   Visit USAJOBS.gov and select “Create Profile” on the front page. Use an email address that you will always have access to, not a work or school email

2. Enter Your Eligibility Information

   USAJOBS will take you through a survey to gather information about which hiring authority you may fall under, contact information, citizenship status, and education.

3. Add or Create a Resume

   Under the Documents section, you can add resumes. If you don't have a resume, visit the Building a Federal Resume webpage for tips. You can also use the resume builder tool within USAJOBS. Find it under the Resumes section of your profile.

4. Add other Documents:

   Some jobs require other documents such as transcripts, proof of performance, veteran paperwork, or other. This varies by job. Review the job announcement carefully and visit the Official Documents page for more information.
