Qualifications

All qualifications must be met by the closing date of this announcement when the applicant limit is reached (which may be sooner than on -05/09/2024). 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 by close of the announcement: 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).

Such experience requires a high demand for quality and quantity of work in each of the building trades accomplished using a thorough knowledge of, and in accordance with "The Secretary of The Interior's Standards for The Treatment of Historic Properties" or similar, where strict adherence to preservation and rehabilitation techniques and guidelines exist. You must include hours per week worked. -OR- EDUCATION: Successful completion of at least 3 years of progressively higher-level graduate education leading to a Ph.D. degree or equivalent doctoral degree or LL.M (if related), with major study in illustrative design, commercial art, fine arts, industrial design, architecture, drafting, interior design, or other fields related to the position.

For example, 6 months of specialized experience (50%) and 9 semester (14 quarter) hours above the first two years of education (50%) is equal to 100% and is qualifying. IMPORTANT NOTE: You must submit a copy of your transcripts and hours/week worked in your resume. ICTAP/CTAP Statement: Current surplus and current or former displaced Federal individuals who have special prior­ity selection rights under the Agency Career Transition Assistance Program (CTAP) or the Interagency Career Transition Assistance Program (ICTAP) must be well qualified for the position to receive consideration for special priority selection.
