[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's your skill set? You're not entitled to a job that is not on the GS scale just because that's what you want.[/quote]

I do want it and I will get it. I worked hard for my positions, I am fairly young, and a SME at a fantastic place with great connections and mentors but maybe I was naive about the difference in salary. The beauty of federal government is that our hiring has clear criteria I can meet or prepare to meet and want to shift my mindset for the next 2 to 5 years in terms of where I want to land. [/quote]

NP and that may or may not happen.  For example, if you work at the state department you probably won't get experience with securities that would enable you to get a job at the SEC.  Maybe some type of IT experience would be transferable across agencies but then again you're competing with other feds with those sake skills.[/quote]

All agencies have budgets my experience is generally in that / adjacent to that but that’s what im trying to track if the SMEs are paid differently or more than operations at a finreg or if it doesn’t matter. Like at a law firm a support person is paid differently than a lawyer. [/quote]

Gotcha, at least at the sec they are in the same pay scale.  However, your starting pay will be set differently.  There are different pay matrices for attorneys vs other occupations.  I never looked to see how they differed though like whether attorneys started higher than others.  But once you're in the scale and raises are the same.[/quote]
