an applicant's past job performance based on information collected from

and worked with the applicant. Reference checking is a necessary 
supplement to the evaluation of resumes and other descriptions of

applicants with a strong history of performance. The questions on this 
form have been developed following the OPM, MSPB, and DOJ ``Best 
Practice'' guidelines for reference checking.

time estimated for an average respondent to respond: An estimated 1000 
respondents will utilize the form, and it will take each respondent
