Navigating the Federal Hiring Process: Exploring Different Hiring Paths: Part 1 of 4

Did you know there are over 10 different hiring paths to get a job in the federal government? This video series will help you understand the different hiring paths to help you land a job in the federal government.

In this video, you learn about;

Hiring Path 1: Open to the Public;
You’re eligible as long as you’re a U.S. citizen or national. Sometimes a non-U.S. citizen is eligible, too.

Even if you’re eligible under one of the other hiring paths, you can still apply to jobs that are **Open to the public**.

Hiring Path 2: Federal Employees;

I mentioned federal employees very briefly for a reason, for current/former feds, being eligible for a job is different from being qualified for a job.

Hiring Path 3: Veterans

With Veterans’ Preference, you may receive preference over non-veteran applicants in the hiring process. Veterans' Preference can be used when applying to permanent and temporary positions in both the competitive and excepted service (of the executive branch).

There are three types of veteran’s preference;

Disabled (10- Point Preference Eligible)
Non-disabled (5-Point Preference Eligible)
Sole Survivorship (0- Point Preference Eligible)
