[quote=Anonymous]I agree with PPs who say that a 13 is most likely when coming from outside. It's really hard -- though not impossible, as one PP demonstrates -- to have directly transferable government experience without working for the government. FWIW, though, it's common in my office to bring people in (whether from outside or from elsewhere in government) to a 13/14 job as a 13 and then make them a 14 the next year; I did this myself after 4 years directly relevant private experience. So based on that, I would suggest you look for a job with promotion potential, rather than worrying about your starting level. We also have non-supervisory 15 positions (I'm not at DOJ) but I don't think I've ever seen someone hired directly from the outside for those. I'm sure it's happened to somebody somewhere, but I also believe that when it happens, it happens to people with more than 5 years experience. Good luck![/quote]
