Resume Bank

HVAPS maintains a resume bank of candidates seeking employment with the House. HVAPS provides confidential referral of resumes if/when House offices request them. To become registered in the resume bank, applicants must complete the Resume Submission Form, including the resume section.

Each House Office is an independent employer and responsible for candidate screening, interviewing and selection, as well as job requirements, compensation, and conditions of employment. HVAPS does not possess hiring authority, nor does it control salaries or job requirements. Staff positions in House Offices are classified as legislative, administrative, or press, however, specific titles, and duties may vary. Offices within the United States House of Representatives are equal opportunity employers.

HVAPS is nonpartisan and administered by the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer of the United States House of Representatives.
