Depending on the hiring agency, you may also use digital tools, dashboards, automation, and approved AI-enabled tools to support financial research, summarize budget or financial materials, identify patterns or anomalies in data, draft preliminary narratives or reports, and strengthen service delivery. Applicants do not need to be AI experts, but should be comfortable learning new tools, using technology responsibly, and adapting to a changing work environment.
