Sec. 330.707  Reporting vacancies to OPM.

    (a) Agencies are required to report all competitive service 
vacancies to OPM when accepting applications from outside the agency 
(including applications for temporary positions lasting 121 or more 
days), except when they elect to fill a position by the transfer or 
reassignment of an ICTAP eligible from another agency.
    (b) Content. Notice to OPM of job announcements must include the 
position title, location, pay plan and grade (or pay rate) of the vacant 
position; application deadline; and other information specified by OPM. 
In addition, for all positions reported, agencies are required to 
provide OPM with an electronic file of the complete vacancy announcement 
or recruiting bulletin, which must contain:
    (1) Title, series, pay plan, and grade (or pay rate);
    (2) Duty location;
    (3) Open and closing dates, plus any other information dealing with 
how application receipt will be controlled, such as the use of early 
cut-off dates;
    (4) Name of issuing agency and announcement number;
    (5) Qualification requirements, including knowledges, skills, and 
abilities;
    (6) Entrance pay;
    (7) Brief description of duties;
    (8) Basis of rating;
    (9) What to file;
    (10) Instructions on how to apply;
    (11) Information on how to claim veterans' preference, if 
applicable;
    (12) The agency's definition of well-qualified and information on 
how CTAP and/or ICTAP candidates may apply, including proof of 
eligibility required; and
    (13) Equal employment opportunity statement.
    (14) Reasonable accommodation statement.
    (i) An agency may use wording of its choice that conveys the 
availability of reasonable accommodation. An agency must not list types 
of medical conditions or impairments as appropriate for accommodation, 
and must keep the wording simple.
    (ii) We recommend using the following statement:

    ``This agency provides reasonable accommodation to applicants with 
disabilities where appropriate. If you need a reasonable accommodation 
for any part of the application and hiring process, please notify the 
agency. Determinations on requests for reasonable accommodation will be 
made on a case-by-case basis.''
