Statement
of Qualifications (SOQ) is a discussion of how an applicant's education,
training, experience, and skills meet the criteria in the duty statement and
qualify the applicant for the position.
Please include a 1-2 pages, 12-point font, SOQ that describes your
experience as it relates to this position/duty statement. Resumes and cover
letters will not take the place of the SOQ. Failure to include and
complete the SOQ may result in disqualification for interview.

of Minimum Qualifications will be verified prior to interview and/or
appointment. If you are basing your eligibility on education, you must
include your unofficial transcript(s)/diploma for verification.
Unofficial, original, or official sealed transcripts will be accepted and
may be required upon appointment. Applicants with foreign
transcripts/degrees must provide a transcript/degree U.S. equivalency report
evaluation that indicates the number of units and degree to which the foreign coursework
is equivalent. Here is a list of evaluation agencies: https://www.naces.org/members. Please redact
