Dear State Vocational Rehabilitation Contacts:

I would like to introduce myself and share my contact information with 
you.  I am the U.S. Department of Commerce, Telework/Disability Program 
Manager, located in Washington, DC.  I work closely with the Selective 
Placement Coordinators at the 12 Bureaus.  I serve as the champion at the 
agency, educating employees and hiring managers about hiring Americans 
with Disabilities.  I can be reached at laase at doc.gov or 202-482-0612.

I am working to market Schedule A applicants’ resumes to hiring
managers with vacancies to fill at the U.S. Department of Commerce
and would like partner with you in my efforts to employ individuals
with disabilities in the Federal Government.

Applicants can forward resumes directly to me to be collected in our 
database and shared with hiring managers when there are vacant positions. 
Applicants are encouraged to apply online for vacant positions at 
www.USAjobs.gov and indicate that they are interested in being considered 
via the Schedule A hiring authority. The point of contact for jobs posted 
via USAjobs is listed on all vacancy announcements and that individual is 
available to give a status update on applications.  For Veterans seeking 
assistance, please contact, Sean Lenahan at slenahan at doc.gov or 
202-482-0767.

The Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. § 552a, Public Law No. 93-579, 
prohibits me from sharing personal information without consent to other 
agencies.  Therefore, I suggest when applicants are interested in sharing 
their information (see list below) with the Bureaus in the Department, 
they forward their information directly to the bureau contacts:

Charles Clark, Special Emphasis Manager
Department of Census, charles.clark at census.gov

Jennifer Croft, Selective Placement Coordinator
NOAA, jennifer.croft at noaa.gov

Bridgett Douglas, Selective Placement Coordinator
USPTO, bridgette.douglas at uspto.gov

Kristen Gilbert, Selective Placement Coordinator
NIST, kristen.gilbert at nist.gov.

·       Resume
·       Schedule A letter
·       Copy of SF-50(if current or past federal worker)
·       Copy of College transcript (only if attempting to qualify
using education)
·       Cover letter (advising of the type of position and desired
location)

Once eligibility for Schedule A appointment and minimum qualifications are 
determined, resumes and transcripts will be shared with hiring managers 
seeking applicants with experience and qualifications matching the skills 
of the applicants.

I also recommend applicants review the information the following websites:
https://www.opm.gov/disability/PeopleWithDisabilities.asp
https://www.disability.gov/
http://www.usajobs.gov/EI/individualswithdisabilities.asp#icc
http://www.eeoc.gov/eeoc/initiatives/lead/abcs_of_schedule_a.cfm

Please contact me with any questions and I look forward to working with 
you.

Thank you,

Linda
