Requirements

Qualifications

All qualifications must be met by 11:59 PM EST when the 'applicant cut-off' is reached (which may be sooner than -09/19/2023). Credit will be given for all appropriate qualifying experience. For current Federal employees, if hours worked per week are not included on your resume, you must submit a non-award SF-50 for each federal position listed as part of your application to be used to validate your work schedule and determine the amount of qualifying experience that you will be granted. An award SF-50 will not be acceptable documentation for which to consider your amount of qualifying experience. For all other applicants who are not current federal employees, your resume must state either "full-time" (or "40 hours a week") or "part-time" with the number of hours worked per week to ensure proper crediting of specialized experience. Failure to adequately provide information needed to determine number of hours worked in each position may result in that time not being credited when evaluating qualifying experience. For periods of time that reflect military service, the DD-214 or Statement of Service is sufficient to meet the full and/or part-time hours requirement as the service dates will be reflected. To qualify for this position at the GS-11 grade level, you must possess at least one of the following minimum qualifications: EXPERIENCE: At least one full year of specialized experience comparable in scope and responsibility to the GS-09 grade level in the Federal service (obtained in either the public or private sectors). This experience includes activities such as: 1) Assist in project development from inception through to completion, to include the use of computer software systems similar in scope to the Facilities Maintenance Management System (FMSS), Planning, Environment, and Public Comment system (PEPC), Project Management Information System (PMIS), and be responsible to ensure that the completed project meets park objectives within assigned budget and schedule.2) Conducting surveillance activities over construction and maintenance operations performed by a variety of private contractors, including reviewing project plans and specifications for workability, informing contractors of construction and reporting requirements, and supervising operations for conformance with project plans. 3) Performing maintenance or construction work, including estimating material and labor costs for a variety of construction or maintenance projects (such as construction or maintenance of brick, frame, structural steel, reinforced concrete, and other type structures ranging from one or two-story buildings to larger structures), directing actual work operations, and maintaining appropriate contacts with the organization funding the project. You must include hours per week worked. -OR- EDUCATION: Successful completion of at least Ph.D. or equivalent doctoral degree in a directly related field, 3 full years of progressively higher-level graduate education leading to such a related degree, or LL.M., if related. You must include transcripts. -OR- Successful completion of a COMBINATION of graduate education and experience as described above. NOTE: Only graduate education beyond the 2nd year is creditable when combining and must be directly related. To combine education and experience, first calculate the number of qualifying semester hours in excess of 2nd year (i.e. 36 semester hours) then divide by 18. Then take the number of qualifying months of full-time experience and divide by 12 months. Add the percentages together. The total must equal at least 100 percent to qualify. You must include hours per week and transcripts. Volunteer Experience: Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community, student, social).

You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience.

Education

To qualify based on education, you must submit a legible copy of transcripts from an accredited institution with your name, school name, credit hours, course level, major(s), and grade-point average or class ranking and degree conferral, if applicable.
