Federal Resume Writing and Applying for Federal Jobs (USAJOBS)

The mission of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is "to fulfill President Lincoln’s promise to care for those who have served in our nation’s military and for their families, caregivers, and survivors."
Within the VA, the Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) is one of three Administrations. The VBA helps service members transition out of military service, and assists Veterans with education, home loans, life insurance and much more. The VBA provides benefits and services to Veterans and their families in a responsive, timely and compassionate manner in recognition of their service to the nation.
The VBA's goal is to attract, develop, and retain passionate, high-performing employees who are interested in making a difference, while providing generations of Veterans - and their survivors - with the care and benefits they deserve.
The National Recruitment Team (NRT) is committed to branding the VBA as an employer of choice by engaging talent pools representing all segments of society.
This webinar is the second in a two-part series. In this session, you will meet representatives of the VBA who will share guidance on federal resume writing and applying for federal jobs through the USAJOBS website.

What about SEASONALS? I have been a seasonal for five years now and can’t seem to get any credit for step increases, etc. I have a masters degree in many years of prior experience I believe the park ranger positions are very competitive.. but I feel I should be getting more interviews? Do I put on my résumé education and experience as a qualifier or should I just put one or the other because I have a lot of both? How can I get a job as a seasonal permanently? Or at least intermittent at the same place? Thank you. I seem to be stuck disappointingly at the GS five level. There must be something I’m doing wrong?
