Manager, Quantico, VA 22134-5003, or call 703-432-0440.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Nonappropriated Fund Human 
Resource Management System (NAF HRMS), OMB number 0703-XXXX.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
to manage and administer the Marine Corps Community Services (MCCS) 
employment application and hiring process.
    Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Annual Burden Hours: 38,933.
    Number of Respondents: 77,866.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 77,866.
    Average Burden per Response: 30 minutes.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondents are applicants who are responding to an MCCS job 
posting on the MCCS Civilian Careers website, accessible at www.usmc-mccs.org/careers. The application delivers a systematic process which 
guides the applicants in completing the employment application and 
submitting it through the MCCS Civilian Careers website. Applicants are 
then able to login to their accounts and view their profile, track the 
status of their current application, and apply for future job postings. 
Maintaining the information collection in the NAF HRMS enables MCCS to 
successfully manage and administer an effective and efficient 
recruiting and hiring process. In addition, the NAF HRMS capabilities 
streamline the employment application process, reduce processing and 
recruiter response times, and decrease the need for applicant calls and 
inquiries; therefore, improving the applicant's experience.
    If applicants were not permitted to provide their personal 
information on occasion at their discretion for employment applications 
the negative impacts could include a decreased amount of qualified 
applicants for MCCS employment opportunities, an inability to notify 
applicants on receipt of applications in a timely manner, and 
applicants not having a means to track the status of their 
applications. These negative impacts could result in poor experiences 
for jobseekers, unfavorable perspectives of MCCS as an employer, and 
ineffective practices in recruiting, hiring, and retention of valued 
employees.
