What are KSAs and how do I answer them?
KSAs stand for Knowledge, Skills and Abilities. These are stories that show you have done the work and are qualified for the position. Hiring officials are looking for specific examples of when you have used that skill or knowledge in order to accomplish a task and get results. Each KSA should be one-half to one-full page. This can be several different stories using the specific skill. Hiring officials are looking for each KSA to provide the situation, the specific task(s) you were challenged with, the actions you took, and the results you achieved. KSAs are just success stories.
