Example: An applicant has one year of specialized experience at the GS-8 grade level and wants to apply for a GS-9. The GS-9 requires specialized experience equivalent to at least the GS-7. Since the applicant has specialized experience at a higher grade (i.e., GS-8) than is required (i.e., GS-7), the applicant can apply for the GS-9.

For GS-11: (A) one year of specialized experience equivalent to at lest the GS-9 grade level or equivalent to at least GS-9 under other Federal service pay systems, private sector, or military, OR (B) three full years of progressively higher graduate level education leading to such a degree, or LL.M.

Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service program (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community, student, social).
