In applying for a job with the federal government, you will more than likely need to complete a seif-assess- ment of your experience, skills, and (5) abilities. This approach to hiring is part of a reform of the way that the federal government recruits, hires, and retains workers that was started under President Barack Obama in (10) 2010. The purpose is to make hiring more efficient and result in more qualified employees. The self- assessment tool is also called an occupational questionnaire (15) or a job-specific questionnaire. What ‘exactly is it? According to the OPM, “an occupational questionnaire is anassessment method used to screen and rate job applicants.” It is corn- (20) posed of a series of questions tailored to the requirements for each specific job. The questionnaire is normally administered online and submitted as part of a candidate's application. (25) The result is a self-rating of the per son’s training and experience. The question formats are similar from job to job and department to department within the government. Questions are typically multiple choice or yes/no and cover a variety of competencies related to the particular position. Typically, a question- naire will have five to ten items for (35) each competency that is to be measured for the position. Because of] the format, occupational questionnaires are a quick and inexpensive way to screen for minimum qualifications (40) while determining the most qualified candidate. In addition, occupational questionnaires can assess a wide variety of knowledge, skills, abilities, and (45) competencies—once the subject of arduous and time consuming essays. They are easy to automate, and, Unlike traditional civil services exams,test security is not an issue. It doesn't (50) matter who knows what the ques- tions are because there are no right or wrong answers. The concept of mea- suring training and experience is a familiar one to government agencies(55) that routinely use performance as ameasure of ‘employee competence.CBRC — CIVIL SERVICE REVIEW PROGRAM | AUGUST 2018 | CRITICAL EXAMINATION 4, The best title for the preceding selection is (A) “How to Complete an Occupational Questionnaire.” Bu to Write an Occupational Questionnaire.” “Occupational Questionnaires: Their Use and Format.
