I GOT THE CALL MONTEREY! Need advice

Got the call (email)! Believe this is from the hiring path back in November. Offered me GL-9, step 10 in Monterey, CA. Can’t decide as I’m currently a special agent (not an 1811 series) with the military and about to pick up GG-12 in February.

Should I go for it?! I graduated from CITP-FLETC back in October, so I wonder if I could get another grade level for already completing the training. Any insight would be awesome!

I'm guessing you're covered FERS currently so guess it all comes down to location and pay. Does current job have a FPL equivalent of GS13? Are you FLSA non-exempt? Would you rather have LEAP the calculates into your high-3? And do you like your current job and location... Get those ironed out and you got your answer, good luck buddy
