Some AVUE hints: Call any Forest Service office if you need help working with AVUE. As a rough guide, GS-4 is junior or senior; GS-5 is college graduate or equivalent experience.  GS-7 requires more school or more experience.  Attach transcripts (unofficial is OK) or a list of classes and a resume if possible. If you update or change your AVUE application, you must reapply for the position to be considered.
