Bronze Federal Package (Entry-Career | GS-1 to GS-6)

Get past the screen and in front of a person, on the two pages the government now allows you.

Since September 27, 2025, USAJOBS will not let you upload or build a federal resume longer than two pages, and HR removes the ones that slip through. OPM's wording is that the applicant is "ineligible for further consideration." Most early-career applicants are still sending the old long-form federal resume, and it never reaches a reader.

Announcements open and close in days, and the next one in your series can be months out. A cycle you miss costs you more than this package does.

This is the package for recent graduates, transitioning E-1 to E-4 service members, and early-career applicants targeting GS-1 to GS-6.

What you get

• Your two-page federal resume. The document you actually submit, written against the announcement's specialized experience statement in your own words, never copied from its wording, with month and year dates and hours per week on every role. Without those two details the experience cannot be fully credited, and that is a quiet reason good applicants get screened out.
• Your comprehensive Master Resume. Your whole career written out in full, every role, every project, every result, with no length limit. The two pages are built for one announcement. This one is yours for life and you keep adding to it, so the next application starts from your own complete record instead of a blank page.
• Before we write a word, we pull the actual assessment questionnaire attached to your announcement and build the resume so every answer you give is provably supported. Most applicants never see that questionnaire until they are already answering it.
• Your questionnaire, checked line by line. Eligibility, preference, conditions of employment, all of it, against what is actually true for you. Buried thirty questions deep is where a wrong answer or a blank field quietly ends an application, and it is where most services have already stopped working.
• We confirm the path is actually open to you before you pay. Some federal moves only work if a specific condition is true, and that condition is usually sitting in the announcement where nobody reads it. We would rather tell you first than take the order.
• Written age-neutral, always. No graduation year, no phrasing that answers how old you are through math. The document should never volunteer it.
• Checked by someone who did not write it. A separate reviewer with no stake in the work reads it against everything you told us before it reaches your inbox.
• A civilian resume or a full LinkedIn overhaul, your choice, included. Either one sells for more than $200 on its own.
• Unlimited revisions, plus 15 days of retargeting. Revisions fix the documents we delivered. Retargeting re-aims your resume at a new announcement. The 15 days start when your Master Resume and your first targeted resume are final, not when a first draft lands in your inbox, and you can pause the clock for up to 3 months if you are not ready to apply yet. Active duty can pause it up to 6 months.
• A closing date reorders the work. Tell us when your announcement closes before you order and we will tell you honestly whether we can hold it. What you need first gets built first and the rest waits, at no extra cost.
• Delivered in 2 to 4 business days. If you have a real deadline, tell us before you order.

Need it faster? A 24-hour rush option is available at checkout.

Is this your tier?

• Bronze, this page, is GS-1 to GS-6. Early career, first federal role, or leaving the service at E-1 to E-4.
• Silver Federal Package is GS-7 to GS-13, where the specialized experience match does most of the work and coaching on the four essay questions is included.
• Not sure which is yours? Get on a call before you order. We will tell you which one fits, including when the answer is the cheaper one.

Before you order

Do I have to be a veteran?
No. We are veteran-owned and a lot of our clients are veterans, but the federal packages are built for anyone applying through USAJOBS. Teachers, analysts, nurses, engineers, first-time federal applicants. If you found us through the veteran side of the site and wondered whether you were in the wrong place, you are not.

I only have one announcement. Can I just buy one resume?
Say so on the call and we will price it honestly. A single targeted build is a real option and we have written them. Look at the math first, though. The package carries retargeting, so your second and third announcements are a re-aim rather than a rewrite, and most people who tell us there is only one posting are applying to three within a month.

The job I want is not posted yet.
That is common, and it is fine. A targeted federal resume is written against the announcement itself, so the posting going live is what starts the tailoring. We build your Master Resume first and turn the targeted version around the day it posts. When it does, send us the control number rather than the announcement number. Announcement numbers often return nothing in USAJOBS search, and the control number always finds it.

Should this job go on my resume?
Bring us the whole picture including the parts you are unsure about. A short contract or an hourly job usually earns its place, because it keeps you currently employed with no gap on the page. Deciding what makes the cut is our job, not yours.

Where does my security clearance go?
OPM's own content guidance lists a current security clearance as an optional item to include when it is relevant, so the answer depends on your announcement and on what you are comfortable putting in writing. We will tell you what we would do and you decide.

Can I edit the documents you send me?
They are yours. You get an editable Word file for exactly that reason. Send it back after your edits if you want a second read, and we will tell you straight whether anything you changed weakens it.

I have a disability or personal circumstances. Does that go in the application?
The resume is not where personal circumstances belong. What can matter is whether you qualify for one of the separate appointment authorities, such as Schedule A or the 30 percent or more disabled veteran authority, each of which has its own documentation. We will walk you through which ones apply to you and what each one needs. We will not put anything about your health on a document.

The four essay questions, and who writes them

Announcements at GS-5 and above now carry four standardized essay questions, the same four government-wide, capped at 200 words each. You certify that the answers are your own words and that you did not use a consultant or AI. Anyone offering to write them for you is offering to make your certification false, and your name is the one on it.

We coach. You write. We sit with you, structure the answer, find the right example out of your own career, and tighten it until it is strong and it is still yours. Two things worth knowing that almost nobody tells applicants: the answers are never scored or rated, and not answering them cannot disqualify you.

We check the rules every time, because they keep moving

Self-assessment questionnaires stopped rating and ranking candidates on September 30, 2025. They still screen you for minimum qualifications, and a validated skills assessment does the ranking now. That is why your resume has to substantiate every questionnaire answer you give, and why we build it that way.

We check agency requirements, GS-level requirements, and OPM's most up-to-date guidance so every resume we deliver is in 100% compliance at the time it is written. Everything we tell you about federal hiring comes from OPM, USAJOBS, or the Federal Register, and we will send you the source.

110,000+ clients served since 2014. 28+ certified resume writers, 17 former federal hiring managers, and 65% of our staff served.

100% Human-Written. Zero AI. Zero Outsourcing. We succeed when you get hired, not when we deliver a PDF.
