The Army this month is deploying an automated delegated
examining application, a further step toward streamlining,
simplifying and speeding up the process of recruiting,
examining and referring external job candidates, replacing
the legacy manual system.
The process, which will work with the the Resumix system:
consolidates the separate external and internal recruitment
procedures into one; eliminates the needs for hard copy
resumes, SF 171 and OF 612, for hard copy referral lists,
and for traditional “crediting plans” involving knowledge,
skills and abilities; allows managers to “weight” Resumix
skills used in the examination process, to use same Resumix
Skill Search Plan developed for internal merit promotion and
to receive and review the internal and external referral
lists simultaneously.
The Army next will deploy an upgrade of their Resume Builder
and an automated interest and availability tool that will
allow HR specialists to assess applicant’s availability by
automatically notifying and querying individuals who have
previously applied to open, inventory type announcements. An
on-line “screen-cam” will be developed and made available to
the public on using the new Army Resume Builder.
