[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Apply to jobs that say "many vacancies", say you're an expert in everything on the skills survey, use words from the announcement in your resume. [/quote] This. And tailor each resume to the job opening you're applying to.[/quote] Yup. It is frustrating but not necessarily a waste of time. I got (and accepted) an offer but I'd probably been applying on USAJobs for 5 years before that happened. Happy to be a fed now. You also do need to tailor your app to each job posting and use their words. I guess it's a question of both stick-to-itiveness and strategery. [/quote]
