Applications must also include complete resumes detailing your duties in each position. All questions should be carefully and completely answered and you must submit all your documentation as stated and requested in each OCV at the time of application.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="color:black">Epidemiologist, GS-0601-13/14/15</span></u></b><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:black"> </span></b><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">HHS-CDC-OM-16-1783100 – MP (internal)<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">HHS-CDC-OD-16-1783101 – DE (external)<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:black"> </span></b><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="color:black">Health Scientist, GS-0601-13/14</span></u></b><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:black"> </span></b><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">HHS-CDC-OM-16-1782439 – MP (internal)<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">HHS-CDC-OD-16-1782448 – DE (external)<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:black"> </span></b><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="color:black">Medical Officer, GS-0602-13/14/15</span></u></b><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:black"> </span></b><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">HHS-CDC-OM-16-1783096 – MP (internal)<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">HHS-CDC-OD-16-1783099 – DH (external)<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="color:black"> <wbr> <wbr> </span></u></b><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="color:black">Public Health Advisor (M&O and Technical), GS-0685-12/13/14</span></u></b><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:black"> </span></b><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">HHS-CDC-OM-16-1782401 – MP (internal)<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">HHS-CDC-OD-16-1782420 – DE (external)<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">For more information regarding OCVs and CDC Global Health jobs, please visit <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/globalhealth/employment" target="_blank">http://www.cdc.gov/<wbr>globalhealth/employment</a><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Please direct questions to <a href="mailto:cgh-gam@cdc.gov" target="_blank">cgh-gam@cdc.gov</a> <u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <u></u><u></u></span></p></div></div><br><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div>Leora Lawton PhD<br>Executive Director<br>Berkeley Population Center<br>360 Barrows Hall<br>(of) 510-643-1270<br>(m) 510-928-7572<br><a href="http://www.popcenter.berkeley.edu" target="_blank">www.popcenter.berkeley.edu</a><br></div></div></div>
