Subject: [Greater-Baltimore] Vacancy Announcement: Equal Employment Opportunity Specialist

Folks,

I'm seeking to fill a GS-13 vacancy for an Equal Employment Opportunity Specialist on my staff.  This is a GS-13 position.  The position is located in Baltimore, with frequent telework available - our current policy for positions of this nature is one day in the office per week.  Those with Schedule A eligibility are encouraged to apply.

There are two vacancy announcements - one for members of the public (DE), and the other for current and former Federal employees (MP).  The Schedule A opportunity is part of the current and former Federal employee opportunity, even if those individuals have never worked for the government (I don't know why it's set up that way).  Those who wish to apply for both postings can do so as long as they are eligible.

DE:  <https://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/797092600>

Qualifications

ALL QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS MUST BE MET WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE CLOSING DATE OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT.

Your resume must include detailed information as it relates to the responsibilities and specialized experience for this position. Evidence of copying and pasting directly from the vacancy announcement without clearly documenting supplemental information to describe your experience will result in an ineligible rating. This will prevent you from receiving further consideration.

In order to qualify for the GS-13, you must meet the following: You must demonstrate in your resume at least one year (52 weeks) of qualifying specialized experience equivalent to the GS-12 grade level in the Federal government, obtained in either the private or public sector, to include:

1.            Researching employment law to draft documents related to Equal

Employment Opportunity (EEO) and civil rights laws, processes, and procedures (e.g., Final Agency Decisions, appeal briefs, settlement agreements, technical guidance, policies); AND

2.            Analyzing data, processes, policies, or procedures to assess EEO

related risks and liabilities; AND

3.            Processing employment discrimination cases through the entire life

4.            Interpreting state and federal employment, anti-discrimination, and

civil rights laws (e.g., Code of Federal Regulations, Equal Opportunity Commission Management Directives) to provide guidance to employees or managers.

Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community, student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment.
