The .gov means it’s official.
Federal government websites often end in .gov or .mil. Before sharing sensitive information, make sure you’re on a federal government site.

There are some exceptions to this rule. During the USAJOBS application process, you may be sent to an agency specific application system that DOES NOT contain a .mil or .gov. Rest assured, if you apply to any job through USAJOBS.gov your information is safe and secure.

Spacing

USAJOBS defines a nonlinear, geometric progression of spacing to provide a consistent pattern.

When to use

All designs and implementations using the USAJOBS design system MUST align to this spacing progression in order for the inter-relationships of components to operate properly.
The SM (2rem/20px) is an exception that we're trying to remove. Any instances that can be removed should be replaced by either the default or M size.
