Steps your workflow can run in USAJOBS.

Search jobsSearch every federal job opening posted on USAJOBS right now. Filter by keyword, title, location and radius, agency, occupational series, pay plan, grade, salary, work type and schedule, security clearance, travel, who may apply, whether it is remote, and how recently it was posted. Returns each job with its announcement number, links to view and apply, locations and coordinates, pay range, opening and closing dates, and the full announcement text. With no filters at all this is the whole board.

Search historic announcementsSearch the archive of every job announcement USAJOBS has ever posted, closed ones included (3.2 million of them). Returns each announcement's title, agency and department, grade range and salary, appointment type and schedule, service type, clearance, travel and telework, who it was open to, its occupational series and locations, and the dates it opened and closed. Five hundred to a page; feed the 'continuation_token' back in, with the same filters, to read the next one.

Get historic announcement textRead the full text an archived announcement was posted with: its summary and duties, the conditions of employment, the qualifications and education required, the documents an applicant had to send, how to apply and what happened next, the benefits, and how candidates were evaluated. Takes the same filters as the archive search: point it at one control number, or at a narrow slice; each record is large enough that a full page of 500 runs to about 10 MB.

List occupational seriesThe occupational series: the four-digit codes that say what kind of work a federal job is, from 0101 (social science) to 2210 (IT management) to 9999. These are the codes the job search and the archive filter on, and the ones an announcement's job categories are stated in.

List agenciesEvery federal hiring organization: the cabinet departments and independent agencies, and the sub-agencies inside them, each with the subelement code a job search filters on and the acronym it is known by. A sub-agency names its department in 'ParentCode' - the Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NV25) sits under the Department of the Navy (NV), which in turn sits under the Department of Defense (DD).

List pay plansThe federal pay plans: GS for the General Schedule most white-collar jobs sit on, WG for wage-grade trades, ES for the Senior Executive Service, and several hundred more. This is the code the job search calls a job grade code, and the one an archived announcement states as its pay scale.

List hiring pathsThe hiring paths: who an announcement is open to. 'The public' is the one anyone may apply under; the rest are eligibilities such as veterans, military spouses, students, recent graduates, individuals with disabilities, and current federal employees in the competitive or excepted service.

List work typesThe position offering types, which USAJOBS calls work types: permanent, temporary, term, detail, seasonal, summer, internship, telework and the rest. This is what says whether a job is a career or a season.

List work schedulesThe position schedule types: full-time, part-time, shift work, intermittent, job sharing, or multiple schedules. This is the code a job's schedule is reported under, and the one the schedule filter on a job search takes.

List security clearancesThe security clearance levels a federal position can require, from none through Confidential, Secret and Top Secret to Sensitive Compartmented Information and the Department of Energy's Q and L authorizations.

List travel requirementsHow much travel a position requires, as the bands USAJOBS publishes them in: none, occasional, 25% or less, 50% or less, 75% or less, or 76% and above.

List applicant eligibilitiesThe applicant eligibility categories an announcement can be limited to: United States citizens, current civil service employees, status candidates, CTAP, ICTAP and VEOA eligibles, student and internship programme eligibles, and agency employees only.

List mission-critical occupationsThe occupations the federal government has flagged as mission-critical and recruits for across every agency: cyber security, data science, economics, privacy, programme and project management, grants management, STEM and intelligence.

List service typesThe three federal services a position can sit in: the competitive service, the excepted service, and the Senior Executive Service. This decides which hiring rules apply and which candidates an agency may consider.

List announcement closing typesHow an announcement stops taking applications: on a closing date, at a closing time, at an applicant cut-off once enough have applied, or open continuously. This is what an archived announcement's closing type code means.

List pay intervalsHow a salary is quoted: per year, per hour, per day, per month, bi-weekly, per school year, as a student stipend, on a fee basis, piece work, or without compensation. This is the rate interval code on a job's pay range, and reading it is what stops an hourly rate being compared with an annual one.

List required documentsThe standard documents an application can be asked for: a resume, transcripts, an SF-50, a DD-214, a VA letter, an SF-15, performance appraisals, licences and the rest. These are the documents an announcement's required-documents list names.

List locationsThe geographic locations USAJOBS posts jobs in: 48,000 cities, counties, military installations and overseas posts, each with its location code, county, state and country. Use the search box: this is how to find the name USAJOBS knows a place by before filtering a job search on it.

List countriesThe countries USAJOBS recognises, with the two-letter code each is referred to by. Federal jobs are posted in most of them, and a job's location states its country as one of these codes.

List states and provincesThe subdivisions of every country USAJOBS posts in: the fifty US states, the District of Columbia and the territories, plus the provinces and regions of everywhere else. Each names the country it belongs to, so a job's state can be resolved to a country without guessing.
