His presentation is on how to navigate and apply for jobs on USAJOBS, or jobs with the Government.

It also shows how to build answers to the questions you encounter when applying @ usajobs, and it also has step by step instructions on how to put together a resume, and cover letter It contains a link that lists every federal, state, county, and city government website…coast to coast, which can be used to search for government jobs and provides useful information for veterans, and civilians with disabilities.
