[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With just a bachelor's degree you would qualify for GS 5 jobs which are going to be very entry level and not prestigious in any agency. Your best bet would be positions posted under Recent Graduates authority but those are likely tied to specific degrees and specialties as there is a push to remove unnecessary degree requirements from hiring.[/quote]

If you have decent college grades (at the time it was 3.0 or above) you might be hired at GS 7.  That was my experience (2002).  I was Interior, so not prestigious, but the job was guaranteed GS 7/9/11 yearly promotions.  Then had to compete after for GS 12 or 13.  Left for private sector after 1 year, but FWIW.  So after two full years of service on that track kid would be a GS 11.  [/quote]

I absolutely agree that is a reasonable path for a college grad to get a good paying job in the fed gov and retire at 55. But OP for some reason asked about prestige with a bachelor's degree.[/quote]
