As some of you might already know the federal GS schedule is a playground. GS 11 has an education requirement of a PhD, or three years of graduate school leading to a PhD. I was flown out for an interview for an agency. They seem to like me as I was given a verbal offer but at a lower GS scale than what I was expecting. The offer was from the main supervisor for a 9, which will be bumped up to a 11 after a year… is it worth it to fight for the 11? Is this an HR issue?


Any advice would be appreciated.
