New 'Semester of Service' Custom Tag for USAJOBS Search Portal
OPM launched its new “Semester of Service” program to help federal agencies recruit high school and college students for unpaid internships. In support of this initiative, OPM created another branded USAJOBS search portal: semesterofservice.usajobs.gov. Agencies can use the new “Semester of Service” custom tag in the MHME TAS. Take a look at our updated resource page for more details.
MonsterGov's Standardized Assessment Valid for ACWA Positions
Per OPM’s Scott Kupor memo sent 2/24, ACWA assessments are now discontinued. As a reminder, MonsterGov’s standardized, non-supervisory assessment battery is an appropriate replacement for those ACWA positions and also compliant with the Merit Hiring Plan and Chance to Compete Act. For more information on MonsterGov’s federal assessments that enable OPM’s Merit Hiring Plan, see our page below.
