Writing a resume for federal employment consideration does not have to be a daunting task. There is not a particular desired layout. Personal information should detail your full name, mailing address and day and evening telephone numbers with area codes. Detailed information should include an employer's name and address, employment dates and job title. This area should include thorough descriptions of all paid and nonpaid positions related to the job for which an applicant is applying as well as descriptions of all duties performed. Other information to include: salary, number of hours worked per week, supervisor's name and phone number, series and pay plan or grade if for a federal position and other accomplishments and related skills. Keep your resume simple and easy to read.
