To meet the minimum qualifications for this position, you must show that you possess the Technical Qualification and Executive Core Qualifications listed below. An individual's total experience and education must demonstrate the ability to perform the duties of an executive-level position. To be considered, you must submit a comprehensive narrative statement that addresses the Technical Qualification (TQ) and each Executive Core Qualification (ECQ). Applicants who do not submit a supplemental narrative statement that addresses each of these factors separately will not be considered.

Your responses to the TQ and ECQs will be evaluated based on how clearly and concisely you emphasize your level of responsibilities, the scope and complexity of your programs; services managed; program accomplishments; policy initiatives undertaken; level of contacts; the sensitivity and criticality of the issues addressed; and the results of your actions taken.

Mandatory Technical Qualification (TQ)

TQs are designed to assess an applicant's experience relevant to this position. Each TQ narrative response must 1) not exceed two pages; 2) include specific examples of your experience, education, and/or accomplishments; and 3) address specific challenges, context (situation), actions, and results.

  • Describe the breadth of your experience and expert knowledge in managing a complex visitor experience portfolio, which includes interpretation and education programs, cooperating associations and partnerships, volunteer and community engagement programs, commemorative events and programs, entrepreneurial management, training, and development of comprehensive program evaluations.

Executive Core Qualifications (ECQ)

The ECQs are designed to assess executive experience and are required for entry to the Senior Executive Service. You must demonstrate exceptional leadership, managerial and people skills; and know how to build partnerships and communicate with customers. ECQ narratives must not exceed ten pages in total.

Leadership Competencies: Creativity and innovation, External Awareness, Flexibility, Resilience, Strategic Thinking, Vision

ECQ 2 - LEADING PEOPLE: You must demonstrate the ability to lead people toward meeting the organization's vision, mission, and goals.

Leadership Competencies: Conflict Management, Leveraging Diversity, Developing Others, Team Building

ECQ 3 - RESULTS DRIVEN: This core qualification involves the ability to meet organizational goals and customer expectations.

ECQ narratives should follow the Challenge, Context, Actions, Results (CCAR) format provided at https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/senior-executive-service/executive-core-qualifications/. Each ECQ and TQ statement should include more than one example of relevant experience. This is a traditional method announcement, meaning qualification narratives are required. If you exceed the page limit for ECQs and/or TQ your application will not be considered. Please give a complete and detailed answer for each specific mandatory qualification demonstrating your experience.

Typically experience will have been gained at or above the GS-15 grade level in the federal service or equivalent in the private sector or non-governmental organizations. Each ECQ and TQ are unique qualifications. Therefore, duplicate responses are not sufficient in determining if you meet that specific qualification. Do not refer to your resume or application to explain your experience or your application package will be considered incomplete and will not be considered. Failure to submit a narrative statement or specifically address the mandatory ECQs and/or TQ clearly is also considered incomplete and will not be considered. As a result, you will be rated as "INCOMPLETE".

If you are currently serving under a career Senior Executive Service appointment, are eligible for reinstatement into the Senior Executive Service, or have completed a Senior Executive Service Candidate Development Program (SES CDP) approved by OPM, you only need to submit a narrative statement covering the Technical Qualification.

No mandatory education requirement.
