    Hi, USAJobs.gov asks if you have a FAC-C certification? I have some DAU certs but unsure which this is. I also have an MBA plus contract experience. This is for a contracts specialist role.

    Retiree from Dept of Homeland Security here. Can’t wait to watch Parts 2 & 3! I retired in 2020, but prior to this have deployed with FEMA field disaster work while I was still employed with USCIS. I worked alongside several reservists during that time and have had plans to become a Reservist. Great information, Stephanie! 🙏🏾

  • @Pub2k4

    Something worth noting about reservist positions who have full time employment elsewhere: According to the FEMA Website, as of September 29, 2022, “The Civilian Reservist Emergency Workforce (CREW) Act protects the job rights of FEMA Reservists while they are deployed to disasters, emergencies and critical trainings by including FEMA Reservists under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployments Rights Act (USERRA). This means that if you hold another job, you are able to deploy as a FEMA reservist and your job will be protected. It also protects you against penalization, discrimination, or loss of employee benefits as a result of your deployments to disasters, emergencies, and critical trainings.” Edit: Well, sh*t…. I should have watched the full series first 😅

    Stephanie I have a question about the Resumes saved on USAJobs. USAJobs allows 5 resumes to be saved. Assuming all 5 resumes are slightly different and geared towards particular titles and responsibilities. Let’s say, one of the 5 resumes has been submitted, all questions answered, and any required documents submitted as well. So, everything on my end regarding that specific application process has been completed and now waiting to see if I make the cut. If that resume in the USAJobs saved resume section is edited, will those edits change the resume that has already been submitted in the above application process?

      As I mentioned I retired in 2012. I think that others would be much more qualified to coach you. Here is one piece of advice. It is easiest to be brought on board during a disaster as a temporary hire. Once you are on board and have worked well during a disaster, then you can apply for more permanent jobs. There are many types of temporary employees including reservists who are mainly older/retired workers. If you can travel and are well adapted to stressful situations, then you are a good candidate to be an emergency worker. Good luck.

    Stephanie, thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos and post them. In addition to my work experience I have recently taken some of the FEMA online EMI classes like: IS-100, 315, 317, 700 and 800 as well as sign up for my local CERT training. I have a couple additional questions if you might be able to spare a few minutes. Is there some way I can contact you directly? If you are busy i understand. Thanks again for all you have done.

    Great simplified explanation of the different roles. This is exactly what I needed to know. I’m retired military and I’ve been working in the insurance property claims industry for the last 3 years. I have a lot of down time between hurricanes so I’m thinking that I might be a great candidate for the Reservist position. I spent 25 years being on call and getting shipped out with very little notice.
