[quote=Anonymous]I don't think you can if you are a current Fed and haven't met the time in grade requirement. I was a GS-13 PhD scientist but had other GS-14/15 level experience. Despite my experience I could never clear the HR screen for GS-15 positions. So I left for a senior position at an NGO for a couple of years and then re-applied back in the government for a GS-15 and got it. Because the NGO paid decent it only made sense for me to take the new GS-15 job at the max salary. It was a risk to leave but my other Fed friends think I am a genius. Of course you're only a genius when the risk works. [/quote]
