Why am I required to complete an assessment?
Assessments help agencies evaluate applicants' job-related competencies and determine which candidates are best qualified for the position.
What happens if I fail to complete the required assessment?
Applicants who fail to complete a required assessment by the stated deadline may be removed from further consideration for the position. Assessments are often a required part of the application process and are used to evaluate applicants’ job-related competencies, skills, and qualifications.
It is the applicant’s responsibility to complete all required assessments and follow the instructions provided within the specified timeframe. Failure to do so may result in an incomplete application and ineligibility for further consideration.
Applicants should carefully review all emails and application notifications to ensure they do not miss assessment deadlines or required actions.
Where can I go to find out more information on the results of my assessment and if they will be reused in the future?
Applicants who have questions about assessment results, score reporting, or the reuse of assessment responses across multiple federal job applications can find additional information through the USA Hire Support Center.
