Short Statement: The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has cancelled the Optional Application for Federal Employment. The information contained in the OF 612 is now incorporated in the online Resume Builder and Applicant Progile on the USAJOBS® Web site. The need to maintain the OF 612 as an alternative means of applying for Federal positions no longer exists as job seekers now have the ability to build and store resumes electronically and reuse them without having to complete an OF-612 each time they are applying for Federal employment. This action is being taken to facilitate a more seamless employment application process for both Federal agencies and job seekers, consistent with the goals of Federal hiring reform.
