On May 29, 2025, the Office of Personnel Management sent a memo to Federal employees telling them that a 2 page Federal resume is now required, instead of the long-form, which could be 5 to 20 pages. Now, this 8th Edition of The Federal Resume Guidebook features 28 full samples of 2 page federal resumes. All the Outline Format resumes from the previous edition have been transformed into the new 2 page Skills Based, Searchable Federal Resume format. The author recognized the need for at least two formats for the 2 page federal resume. Page One is critical and can vary depending on the target position and resume content. The 2 page Federal Resume samples include various formats for Federal employees seeking Promotion, Career Change, Wage Grade (Trades), IT, Technical and SES. The formats feature Profile, Accomplishments, competencies, Professional Experience and more; all in two pages. This book will be an absolutely necessary text for any Federal employee or anyone who wants a Federal job. The samples are invaluable, they match the USAJOBS requirements and teach the applicant how to match the USAJOBS announcement. A key feature in the new book is the importance of Accomplishments in the shorter two-page format. With the long form Federal resume, the accomplishments could be blended or embedded into the work history, but not with the two page resume. They must stand out, quickly, in order to get Best Qualified, Referred, Interviewed and Selected for a new position. Competencies are also emphasized, to match the target position. With such a short amount of space, the significant competencies have to be clearly written. The 2 page Federal resume is so dramatically different than the previous long form, there is significant challenges for serious Federal applicants. The samples in the book will dramatically help anyone who needs to condense many pages into 2 pages that are targeted, impressive and compliant with the USAJOBS requirements.
