How the Program Works Each candidate must receive an acceptable evaluation to be admitted into the database. Must receive an “average” rating or higher to be included in the WRP database In addition to the recruiter’s evaluation, the WRP database contains contact information, degree, major, GPA, location preference, interview notes, resume, transcripts, and potential accommodation needs. Database is opened to all registered employers nationwide in early December and is active for one year. Federal employers use the site to hire candidates for summer/temp or permanent positions throughout the year (private companies use EARN - our contractor - to identify candidates).

Initiative to Increase Participation of Veterans
Federal agencies are more focused on hiring veterans with disabilities than ever before. Last year, we increased veteran participation to 9%. Veterans represent a significant portion of the hires, and we would like to raise the number participating. Unfortunately, an astounding 162 out of the 280 schools participating in the WRP in did not provide veterans to be interviewed by a WRP recruiter. Of the 118 schools that did, the vast majority only provided one veteran. There is obviously great room for improvement. DoD and DOL are committed to increasing veteran participation in the WRP to 12% by 2014… but we can’t do it without you! Assist us by ensuring that the Veteran’s Coordinator and Student Veteran community on your campus are aware of the WRP, or Provide us with their contact info and we will follow up directly.

Providing Answers – Q&A
Are candidates interviewing for particular positions or jobs within specific agencies? Providing Answers – Q&A Are candidates interviewing for particular positions or jobs within specific agencies? Is feedback given to the candidates after the interview and do they know whether or not they were entered into the database? Suggested response from the FAQ document… Candidates are not interviewing for specific positions at specific agencies. They are being interviewed to assess their strengths and overall readiness to work in the federal or private sector. Candidates are not placed into jobs; they are simply being added to a database that is made available to federal employers directly and to the private sector through a contractor. Recruiters are assessing a candidate’s qualifications, maturity, direction, and communication. Copyright © 2012
