This questionnaire collects information about you and how to contact you, such as your name, phone numbers, email address, and mailing address.
To safeguard your privacy, Application Manager will only ask for your Social Security Number the very first time you visit the Biographic Information Questionnaire, but never again after that. You will type your Social Security Number twice for verification, so the chances of your typing the wrong number a very low. However, if you have reason to believe your Social Security Number is wrong, you can update it by clicking Edit Profile on the Main page. Your Social Security Number will never appear in Application Manager. More details about Edit Profile.
This information is stored in your Application Manager Account Profile the first time you create an Application Package. Later, when you apply for other positions, information in your account profile will automatically fill out much of the Biographic Information Questionnaire for you. However, you should still visit this page each time to confirm that all information is still current and to see if there are any new questions to answer.
When you Submit your Answers later, any changes or new information you provide in the Biographic Information questionnaire will be used to update your Account Profile unless you designate otherwise. More details about Submit Answers.
Note that we treat all your personal information carefully and only share it with employers in Federal agencies in connection with your job application. More details about our Privacy Policy and Privacy Act Statement.
