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.
This video was very helpful. Thank you
Thanks, I have a panel interview tomorrow! Your video was helpful.
Yay! Good luck!!
Thank you for uploading these videos! Very informative.
Thank you so much. You are awesome. I’m retired from USMC and preparing to retire from USPS and looking to continue working in government. I have always considered FEMA and you really helped me understand the agency.
Can Reservist get TSP retirement benefits?
Unfortunately not
Wonderful info!
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! 🙏🏾
How can I find the field jobs? The website seems so confusing
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 😅
After serving as an IT reservist for 2 years is there a possibility to transition into a core employee?
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?
very informative! thnx so much
Thank You Stephanie.
Gratitude for this wonderful video.
what about felons ,does fema hire felons ??
Omg thank you so much
I'm already a reservist and I tried applying to the full time version of the same position and was denied. Would you be able to help?
Sure thing! What's a good email to contact you?
Why did you leave FEMA?
Great question, Clay. It was a great organization but I wanted to try my hand at local government. There's a different focus when you go local.

I want to join so bad but it's so hard
Exactly 🤦🏾♂️ I’m trying to find out how to actually join the field position but it’s difficult
This is supper helpful!!! Thank you, I’ve been lost in life as what I wanna do but my mom got me into learning abt FEMA, I really want to be on scene helping victims in the moment and work on recovery and all that
Can you do a video on how to get a fema job with no experience? I just graduated and could use some tips. Thanks for all of your videos
Is Civil Defense now FEMA- Federal Emergency Management Agency?
Yes! FEMA was born out of civil defense in 1978
Stephanie. Great explanation in as simplified mannner as possible. I am now retired since 2012, but I spent 21 years as the Region 9 ESF#7 Regional Emergency Coordinagtor.
Would you like to coach myself for an interview? I am willing to pay.
@@indiaboricua2075
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.
@@bobbrown9699 Great advice. Thanks
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.
Hi David. Thanks for watching! I'd say contact me via LinkedIn :) www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-delorenzo-msp-8a87228a/
What work from home desk jobs require no experience and I can be trained for it?
✨️✨️🌈✨️✨️
Thank you so much! You are a life safer. I just graduated and looking to apply for FEMA, but their site and job descriptions is a little intimidating
Sorry, but I couldn't find the example template.
Thanks. I need video 3 tho 👀🤣
Steph, I work for FEMA this is great information. I am going to save a short cut to your videos and for those new employees that come into my DIV I am going to have them watch your videos. Very knowledgeable, sorry you are not with FEMA any longer.
Hello dear, It has been 6 months and still not posted part 3. We are not going to accept any more excuses. Please post it as soon as possible. We love how you present the past two videos. We really appreciate you for investing your dedicated time for us. God bless you!
what the
Who the hell do you think you are 😂
such great information and not found anywhere else. I am in the process with 16 applications in for a Region. Thank you so much, this helps a ton!!!!!!!!
I need to know how much they pay
Hello. Salary is listed in all of the job postings on USAJOBS
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.
Any luck with FEMA?
Amen to that brother. Good luck.
@@tommyboy0208 No, I got a call from a different company with great pay and potential so Im putting FEMA pursuit on hold for now.
Hello Stephanie, Thanks so much for these videos. They are super informative! Any word on when you may be able to complete the third video?
Thanks for the information. I recently finished a bachelors in Homeland Security and Emergency Management and really enjoyed it. And then I got hired the the corps of engineers doing nothing EM related. Now I’m working on a masters in emergency management. 😅 I wanted to be a field guy but 75% of the year is an awful lot. Already did that with the army.
I’m in school for that now! How are you enjoying your career so far?
@@Ice_48 I like working for the Corps. I do contracting but once I’m done with school (90 more days!) I’ll be volunteering for the emergency operation department in some capacity. We just had people in HI for the fires and who knows where else. What are you thinking about doing?
I'll subscribe when u drop part 3
Thanks, Dope! Working on it. Just started a new job so it's gonna take a minute. In the meantime, I will be writing an article with some tips that I will link here so you will have something!
@@DisasterDeLo are you still federal employee?
When will episode 3 be ready
Working on it. Just started a new job so it's gonna take a minute. In the meantime, I will be writing an article with some tips that I will link here so you will have something!
@@DisasterDeLo Thank You and good luck with the new job
Power is out in Waynesburg Ohio since yesterday... I've been trying to get white house to address the nation. I'm losing battery power. Enjoy your day.
Lol.. You’re a loose cannon, Kat
Great information, thanks
