BOP Program Statement 3300.03 § 3
ASSESSMENT METHOD
The Workforce Systems and Evaluation Section, in conjunction with Subject Matter Experts, will
develop job competencies based on job analysis as a basis to define the criteria for each category
definition. Job analysis must conform to the Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection
Procedures (28 CFR Sec. 50.14 and 5 CFR part 300).
Applicants will be evaluated using an automated system for Category Rating. Based on an
applicant’s response to the assessment questions, he/she will be grouped in one of the following
categories: Best Qualified, Highly Qualified or Qualified. The Consolidated Staffing Unit
(CSU) will validate the experience of candidates to be referred to the selecting official.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
