Confused about Wilkes-Barre VA MSA “open continuous” posting — when do interviews happen?

Interviews for this "open continuous" announcement occur on a rolling, as-needed basis after each cut-off date, with the first review of applications happening on February 27; you may be contacted weeks or months after that date if your application is referred and a specific vacancy arises that matches your profile. This mechanism, governed by 5 CFR parts 302, 330, and 332, allows the HR office to maintain a qualified candidate pool (like yours, bolstered by your veteran's preference and degree) for up to 90 days after the announcement closes, filling vacancies without re-posting. Your actionable steps are: 1) ensure your USAJOBS profile and application are complete and submitted before February 27 to be in the first referral group, 2) monitor your email and phone diligently for interview requests, which can come with short notice, and 3) understand that non-selection after one cut-off does not disqualify you—your application remains active and will be re-evaluated at subsequent cut-offs until the announcement closes. As a disabled veteran, ensure your DD-214 and Schedule A letter (if applicable) are uploaded to claim all preferences. **Disclaimer: This information is for educational purposes regarding federal hiring procedures and is not legal, medical, or official HR advice.**
