Ugh. I know the answer to this. I'm hoping someone has a more hopeful answer!
I was applying for a job today, spent the last week getting my resume ready. Was doing a final review and went to submit.
The job closed an hour before the midnight eastern closing time. ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
The job specifically said 11:59 pm eastern. And the many many jobs I've applied to have all closed at midnight.
This one closed an hour early.
I took a screenshot and sent the contact listed the screenshot and a note about my snafu before the midnight deadline.
I'm just SOL, right? You can break my heart and tell me. 🤦
Has this ever happened to you?

I will always remind myself to have an application completed no later than 12 noon EST time on the day it closes, just in case. Good Luck! https://www.usajobs.gov/...announcement/expiration/

This is a general question.
Hoping someone can advise me.
If I forgot to put my hours and salary on my resume, will I automatically be disqualified from the position.

Required: Employer, location, position title, start and end date, average hours worked per week, responsibilities and accomplishments. Optional: You may include your supervisor(s) as a reference. Including your salary is also optional and will not exclude your resume from consideration. It best to use the USAjobs resume builder to ensure that all required fields are completed which is one less thing you have to think about when applying for jobs. I included the website for additional information. https://gogovernment.org...ing-your-federal-resume/
