Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience. The Office of Personnel Management's group coverage qualification standards, associated individual occupational requirements (IOR), and individual qualification standards covering white collar occupations in the Federal competitive service can be found here. GS-09:
To qualify, applicants must have one year of specialized experience equivalent to at least the next lower grade (GS-07) in the normal line of progression for the occupation in the organization. Specialized experience is defined as work that involves (1) Analyzing financial data to include budgets and forecasting; (2) Developed experience compiling data from various sources, analyzing it, and developing recommendations for improvement or resolution of problems; and (3) Preparing written reports that include charts and graphs. OR Applicants may substitute education for the experience required to qualify at the GS-09 level:
A Master's degree or two full years of graduate education leading to such a degree. OR Applicants can combine education and specialized experience to qualify for the position at the GS-09. If you have some, but not all, of the graduate education AND specialized experience described above, you may still qualify by combining the amount of creditable education and experience that you do have. To do so, first calculate the percentage of qualifying education you have as a percentage of the education required. Next, calculate the percentage of specialized experience you have as a percentage of the experience required. Then, add the two percentages. The total percentage must equal at least 100% for you to qualify for the position at the GS-9. For example, an applicant who has 27 semester hours of graduate education (the first year does not count) and 6 months of acceptable specialized experience (i.e., 50% of the experience required) would satisfy the qualification requirements for the position. If you qualify based on a combination of graduate education and specialized experience, you must submit a copy of your official college transcript with your application. GS-11:

OR Applicants may substitute education for the experience required for the GS-11 level. Ph.D. or equivalent doctoral degree or 3 full years of progressively higher-level graduate education leading to such a degree or LL.M., if related. OR Applicants may also combine education and experience to qualify at the GS-11 level. To calculate, first identify the percentage of required education you have earned. When substituting you can use graduate level education you have earned beyond a Bachelor's Degree. Then identify the percentage of required experience you possess. Add the two percentages. The total percentage must equal at least 100 percent to qualify at the GS-11.For example, an applicant who has 48 semester hours of graduate level education(i.e. 15 semester hours beyond the Master's degree, which is the equivalent of 75% of the required education) and has 3 months of specialized experience, would have the 1 year combination required for the position.
Estimated Salary: $20 to $28 per hour based on qualifications.
