  • Guidance Issued on Transition to ‘Skills-Based’ Hiring - May 23, 2022
  • FEDweek -

    OPM has issued guidance on hiring for competitive service jobs downplaying the traditional roles of educational credentials and candidate self-assessments, saying the shift in approach will help hiring managers “recognize and value skills regardless of where they were acquired, whether in a formal degree program, on the job, or on one’s own.”

    “Skills based assessments will also support agencies as they prepare for the future of work.

Skills based assessments can inform agency upskilling, hiring, and onboarding approaches to position the government for long term success,” OPM said.
