These positions may consist of term, temporary, or permanent appointments with DOE. Existing federal employees may also submit
information to be evaluated for employment opportunities under this process. The Demographic Data is strictly voluntary and will not be used

strictly voluntary and will be used to inform DOE’s Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility (DEIA) initiatives aimed at increasing
access to DOE opportunities and supporting a more diverse and inclusive workforce. Demographic data collected will be kept confidential,
