Not at all. If we’ve determined that you were eligible for the position, but you simply weren’t hired for a specific vacancy, try again. There may have been so many applicants for that specific position that we could not hire everyone that was qualified.

What you can do now is log back in to www.USAJOBS.gov and review your resume to make sure that it describes how your experience and education directly relate to the job you are applying for. Hint: You can build more than one resume on USAJOBS, and then choose the best one to use for each application you submit.
