Your response to this question is for the online assessment process only. Requests for on-the-job accommodations would be received and reviewed at a later time through a separate process outside of this application.

Applicants are required to take one or more online assessments in order to complete an application for this position. Reasonable Accommodations for taking the online assessments are provided on a case-by-case basis only to qualified individuals with a disability covered by the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended.

Do you have a disability (physical or mental) that you believe will interfere with completing the online assessments and require a Reasonable Accommodation?

If you choose "yes" to this question, you must submit the following documentation:

1. USA Hire Reasonable Accommodation Request Form, and

2. Medical documentation from a qualified professional that includes the following information:

(1) What is the disability, to include how it affects your ability to complete the assessments,

(2) What accommodation is requested to assist with the assessments, and

(3) How will the accommodation help you take the assessments.

NOTE: Schedule A letters are not sufficient to determine Reasonable Accommodation eligibility for online assessments. Requests for Schedule A hiring or reasonable accommodations for work on the job should be directed to the agency contact listed in the job announcement.

Failure to submit the documentation by the designated deadline will cause your application to remain incomplete for this announcement. This will remove you from consideration for this position.
