• Within the priority group (i.e., 1, 2 or 3) – Provide the manager sanitized resumes to review and

prioritize the order (within each group) to be worked (Note: Must be accomplished within 1 business day IAW PPP Operations Manual)

• Multiple Referrals from Same Registering Activity– When resumes prioritized by manager are sequentially

from the same registering activity, the qualification determination request may include the names of the registrants in the order to be worked.

EXAMPLE: Requesting Qualifications Multiple Referrals

• Multiple Referrals Example: Priority 1 Registrants prioritized by the manager:

Registrant A – Activity 111ARegistrant B-- Activity 111ARegistrant C-- Activity 111ARegistrant D-- Activity 111ARegistrant E-- Activity 001ARegistrant F-- Activity 111A

• Qualifications Request should include registrants A, B, C, and D with instructions that the registering activity should do the qualifications for registrant A and if not qualified*, registrant B, etc. Once the first well-qualification determination is made (jointly) the remaining registrants would not require qualifications determination.

• If Registrants A, B, C, and D are determined to be not well-qualified, contact would then be made with Activity 001A for Registrant E.

• Registrant F would not be provided since Reg E is higher in the order determined by the manager.

*Obtain the reasons why the individual is not well-qualified from the registering activity and present to the manager for decision to relax the well-qualified standard and proceed with offer. If not, gaining should be advised to proceed with qualifications determination for next registrant.

• Obtain a Subject Matter Expert (SME) opinion on technical positions

• Inform the manager of a well-qualified PPP match in a timely manner prior to an offer being extended

• Relaxing the Well-Qualified Standard

- If manager has prioritized registrants, and registering activity determines the registrant is not well-qualified, a job offer can still be authorized if in the opinion of the gaining activity, in consultation with the manager, the registrant could succeed in the job.

• Upon receipt of a Military Spouse, Program S Match:– If an announcement has been issued:

• Spouse must be rated best-qualified against competitive rating criteria

• If noncompetitive candidates are rated against the same skills, a BQ spouse blocks selection of a noncompetitive candidate

• If noncompetitive candidates are referred separately without applying skills, a BQ spouse would not block selection of a noncompetitive candidate

– If an announcement has NOT been issued:• Since competitive rating criteria have not be applied at this

point, a BQ spouse would not block selection of a noncompetitive candidate

Gaining – Working Resumes (Continued)

Page 11: UTILIZING PPP FLEXIBILITIES November 2010 1 CHRA CIVILIAN HUMAN RESOURCES AGENCY

• Use of Interrogation Process– No matches received

– Recruitment Source (Manager may provide Name Request)

Example:• Gaining Activity Requisitions, GS-201-11 (Option Code MIL), Activity Code 001A in Anywhere, USA• No matches received• Manager is interested in known PPP registrant with same title series and grade and option code.• CPAC reviews ASARS Activity Codes to determine if interrogation will be for registrants for specific

A-coded activities within the commuting area, a general geographic, an entire state, or all registrants. (Payment of PCS costs may be borne by the gaining activity.)

• CPAC contacts Priority Placement Support Branch (PPSB) to request an ASARS Interrogation for registrants in nearby activities matching the GS-201-11 with MIL Option Code.

• PPSB will issue referral resumes based on the interrogation request.• Referred resumes included manager’s name request. Close PPP Requisition (cancel code F). • Refer names to manager. Manager may interview and check references on interrogation referees.• If selection made, proceed accordingly. If accepted, code referred registrant with report action code

3. If no selection, open a new PPP requisition and proceed with recruitment. • Maintain all documentation for case file.

Page 14: UTILIZING PPP FLEXIBILITIES November 2010 1 CHRA CIVILIAN HUMAN RESOURCES AGENCY

CHRA

• When working multiple requests for the same registrant, they are worked in order of receipt.

• While working the initial request, the next request should be reviewed to determine if the registrant is well-qualified.

– Contact the gaining for joint agreement on qualifications and confirm that there are no significant difference in employment conditions that would invalidate an offer.

– Advise the gaining activity that a prior match is still pending resolution and this 2nd match will be held in abeyance for offer if initial match does not result in placement of the registrant.

– Subsequent matches should be released by informing the gaining activity that the registrant has a valid offer pending.

• Chapter 4, Appendix A provides clear examples of working multiple requests and instructions for releasing excess matches.
