Qualifications:

To qualify for this position, you must meet the following minimum qualifications:

This position has an Individual Occupational Requirement. To be considered, you must meet one of the below requirements:

  • Degree: A bachelor's or higher degree in genetics; OR a degree in one of the basic biological sciences that included at least 9 semester hours in genetics.

OR

  • Graduate Education: Graduate education in genetics, or a curriculum or pattern of graduate-level training that placed major emphasis on genetics. Graduate study in a related field may also qualify if the coursework included sufficient emphasis or cross-training in genetics. Qualifying genetics coursework may include genetics; plant or animal genetics; molecular and cellular biology; mathematics or statistics as applied to genetics; population dynamics; or other courses involving techniques applied in genetics work. An appropriate combination of basic coursework in genetics and cytology or statistics may also be qualifying.

You must submit transcripts with your application that demonstrate you meet this basic requirement.

-AND-
In addition to the above individual occupational requirement (IOR), to qualify for this position at the GS-12 grade level you must have at least
one year of specialized experience equivalent to the GS-11 level in the Federal service (obtained in either the public or private sectors). Specialized experience includes performing professional genetics work with fish or other aquatic species, such as:

  • Conducting molecular, population, or conservation genetic analyses;
  • Analyzing genomic or genetic sequence data using statistical or biological data analysis methods;
  • Applying genetic techniques such as next-generation sequencing, environmental DNA analysis, polymerase chain reaction, metabarcoding, or genetic marker analysis;
  • Designing or conducting genetic studies and validation experiments;
  • Developing, adapting, or evaluating genetic laboratory or analytical methods and protocols; and
  • Interpreting genetic data to evaluate species identification, population structure, genetic diversity, population or stock origin, or other genetics-related questions that support aquatic species conservation and management.
To receive credit for experience, your resume MUST state either "full-time" (or "40 hours a week") or "part-time" with the number of hours worked per week to ensure proper crediting of specialized experience. Failure to adequately provide information needed to determine number of hours worked in each position may result in that time not being credited when evaluating qualifying experience.
