I'm coming back to this 2 years later because I need to refresh my knowledge and use your information for myself since my company just announced a bunch of layoffs. Thank you for keeping this resource out here! 😁

[Ryan-Dwayne-Neely]

Excellent advice right here!! first time I heard it like this

[JoeBurby]

Thank you for this. I've taken several Federal Resume Workshops and have taken many notes. This is a good refresher.

USA jobs resume builder solves all of this. Much simpler and easier to work with.

Great vid! At 3:30 you can include GPA if its above a 3.0, but it is optional.

[brendafleming]

Thank you for your video. Do you think it's necessary to hire a federal resume writer ($500!!) or is the USA JOBS builder enough?

[macyryan]

Hi Abby! Thank you for the video, so incredibly helpful. For one of my previous jobs, I no longer have any information for. The facility is closed down and I don’t have a working number for my old supervisor. What should I do? Also, should I only list jobs within the last five years or so? Or all of them? TIA!

[JenniferKumar-CareerCoach]

Should applicants highlight or prioritize their relevant experience/education/skills near the top, or as long as it's included in the document somewhere it's good?

Abby, thanks so much for the tips, invaluable :)

I’m hesitant to state my current salary because wouldn’t HR use that against me to offer me less? And it’s illegal or not allowed for companies to ask for that in my state. Any thoughts on this ?

Question, in the education part, would a military member add their military schools? For example, • Non-commissioned Officer Academy, or AIT (after Basic Training) (such as Military Police School). When it comes to the MP's, they get a diploma from the "United States Army Military Police School".

[Ryan-udtx]

Thanks Abby, any chance you provide any services for resume reviewing/consulting etc?

[mixzawa]

Another question I have is on the work experience section is the mark of yes or no important at this stage of the hiring process if I was to mark no if I didn't tell my current employer I am looking for a federal job? I would prefer them to contact him when I am in the later stages of the process and doing interviews when the change of getting picked up is higher than the beginning.

Hello, Thanks for this video. Are you still helping/reviewing resumes for Federal Jobs? I'm feeling overwhelmed :(

[annettef.]

What if you have gap of work experience due to attending college

[annielin]

Abby I just subscribed to your channel, I just got laid off from a temp agency as a COVID 19 Tracer, I'd like to transition into Federal Government jobs, are you very familiar with how the USAJOBS pick up resumes... What are your success rates?

[asmara]

@abby any sample federal resume you can share or where do you think I can get.
