[quote=Anonymous]What agency are you applying at? At NIH, most jobs for PhDs/postdocs are advertised at 11/12. You can move up to 12 within a year or two, depending on your office. These are administrative jobs. My DH came in at 12 after a postdoc and went to 13 after a year. He can go to 14 relatively easily after another couple of years, 15 will be more difficult. If you want to continue benchwork after a PhD/postdoc and do not want to go the TT route, then the options are biologist (usually tops out at 13) or staff scientist (4-year, renewable terms, higher paid than GS but less stable).
