Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 141 / Friday, July 22, 2011 / Notices

3304, 3320, 3361, 3393, and 3394 of title
5, United States Code. This revision
proposes to in part, permit the migration
of USAJOBS to a new platform. In
addition, this revision proposes to:
(A.) Discontinue the use of the
Application for Federal Employment
Optional Form 612. This action is being
taken to facilitate a more seamless
employment application process for
both Federal agencies and job seekers,
consistent with the goals of Federal
hiring reform.
(B.) Revise the collection of
Demographic Information on Applicants
by removing the sourcing question
‘‘How did you learn about this
position?’’ along with the pre-populated
answer choices provided for this
question.
(C.) Add basic eligibility questions to
the Applicant Profile as well as optional
questions to the Applicant Profile in
USAJOBS that will allow applicants to
self-identify (subject to subsequent
verification by the appointing agency) as
eligible for certain special hiring
authorities. This is expected to
streamline some hiring actions by
allowing agencies to search for resumes
of applicants who have volunteered
information about their eligibility under
special hiring authorities. Information
volunteered by applicants about their
potential eligibility under one or more
special hiring authorities will be stored
in USAJOBS and will only become
visible to agencies that are considering
filling a job using a special hiring
authority. In that case, the hiring agency
will be able to search USAJOBS for
potential applicants who have chosen to
indicate that they believe they are
eligible to be selected under the special
authority the agency seeks to use.
Applicants who do not choose to use
this opportunity to volunteer
information about their eligibility under
a special hiring authority may still
choose to apply for jobs, as they are
announced, under any of these special
hiring authorities for which they are
eligible. If applicants volunteer to
provide information through the Web
site about the special hiring authorities
for which they believe they are eligible,
then agencies that are searching for
potential applicants to hire under one of
these authorities may be able to locate
their resume through USAJOBS and
invite them to apply. Otherwise, this
information will be retained in the
USAJOBS database and not disclosed.
We estimate it will take
approximately 38 minutes to initially
complete the Resume Builder,
depending on the amount of
information the applicant wishes to
include, and approximately five

minutes to initially complete the
Applicant Profile. We estimate over
3,500,000 new USAJOBS accounts will
be submitted annually. The total annual
estimated burden is 2,508,333 hours.
