Question-
A great job at a great location just became available, but it is a GS11 and I am currently a GS12, Step 10. If I apply and am selected for the job, could I in the future apply for a GS12 job and qualify at the Step10 level that I had or do I loose the step levels once I go down to an 11?
Thanks!

Thanks! Yes, you should be placed at GS12 step 10...make certain you have copies of your SF50s showing you at step 10! You can also apply for GS13 positions if you have at least 52 weeks TIG at the GS12 level. So, hypothetically...you take GS11 at great location. 6 months later, GS 13 position opens in the same great location, you could apply to it. |
