To be considered for a Federal job, you need to meet or exceed the minimal education and experience requirements. Frequently, many applicants meet or exceed these requirements. This is where the KSA (knowledge, skills and abilities) comes into play. When applying for most Federal jobs, you are required to include a KSA. This is a very important document in the hiring process. Your KSA response is where you list your personal qualifications and attributes that are related to the job you are applying for.
Does anyone know how to write a KSA job description. I am trying to write at least three and I am stuck. Please advise. Thanks!
You need to be more specific with what you need help with. Do you know the keywords they look for in the KSA's for the specific job title youre applying for?
Federal soup may be a better place to address your question.
Landing a federal job is all about getting to the interview phase. Without a properly written KSA, you will never see the face of a human hiring manager. Look for a professional KSA writer in your area. It's worth the money if you want to land a federal position.

It depends on the job. When I screened job applications for accounting positions in the federal government, surprisingly a large number of candidates put "see resume" for each KSA. This was particularly common for those that worked at Big 4 accounting firms. Another common thing that I saw was that people just put bullet pointed phrases for each KSA. The difference is that a typical resume is usually enough to separate quality candidates from an applicant pool for accountants. A lot of those "see resume" candidates got chosen for interviews.
