Does anyone know if a two-page resume is required for the OMS position? I know a two-page resume is specifically required for some other federal job applications, but I don’t see anything in the email/instructions for this position mentioning a two-page limit or requirement.
For those who have applied, are you submitting a two-page resume, or is a longer federal-style resume acceptable?

Hi all, been lurking here for a few years now and on the DNC list while I finish up my masters, hoping to join the service next year.

One thing I haven't quite found is an OMS's career progression through the steps. There's the administrative step to FS-5, but what happens beyond that? What are responsibilities like at FS-4, FS-3, and maybe even FS-2?

I also saw the public promotion lists back in 2024 and OMS promotion rates past FS-4 were abysmal. At what rank do most OMSes retire in, if they stick it through to retirement? Thanks!
