  • You are highly organized and adept at managing time-sensitive work streams, which can include hard and fast regulatory deadlines as well as some questions that require same-day turnaround
  • You have excellent judgment and you welcome responsibility for, and ownership of, high-impact projects and successful outcomes
  • You have a bachelor’s degree and 2+ years of role-relevant post-graduate work experience in a fast-paced startup or law firm environment; this is a non-attorney role but we encourage college grads who have an interest in attending law school to apply

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
