EXECUTIVE CORE QUALIFICATIONS
Applying for a Senior Executive Service (SES) position with the Federal Government?
Writing those EXECUTIVE CORE QUALIFICATIONS is a daunting task!
It's not easy to write about yourself in an objective marketable way. And who has the time? WE DO! Let our experienced writing professionals write or edit your EXECUTIVE CORE QUALIFICATIONS (ECQ's) for you, or we can review and edit your entire draft SES application.
Executive Core Qualifications:
Executive qualifications are the primary selection criteria for the Senior Executive Service jobs in the Federal government.
The Executive Core Qualifications (ECQ's) are required for entry to the Senior Executive Service and are used by departments and agencies in making their selections.
The ECQ's were designed to assess executive experience and potential. They measure whether an individual has the broad executive skills needed to succeed in a variety of SES positions. The United States Office of Personnel Management has identified five fundamental executive qualifications. They are:
(1) Leading Change
(2) Leading People
(3) Results Driven
(4) Business Acumen
(5) Building Coalitions/Communications
We can help you build powerful, effective qualifications statements that will propel your application to the forefront with rating and selecting officials.
Our writers and editors have the experience and tools to help you describe specific information about your achievements in clear, concise, first-person statements.
We will help you to describe your education, experience and training and recommend phrasing best suited for each ECQ.
We will help describe specific challenges and results, quantify and qualify your accomplishments and relate them to larger mission specific goals.
