[quote=Anonymous]Getting your foot in the door is the hardest part as a fed. Just because you see a position posted that would be perfect for you, doesn't mean you will make the cert, get an interview and get an offer. You also need to take into consideration that it does start out at 4 hours of leave per pay period (approx. 2.6 weeks) which can possibly be negotiated to 6 (4 weeks). You also get a pension AND a 401K (TSP). You will be competing against internal candidates who potentially really know the program or the hiring officials as well as vets, who (rightfully so) get preference. I would not make $4 your battle to chose. If you are offered a position, you can potentially discuss a higher step increase to match your current salary, but they may or may not match it. [/quote]
