Public Service Pay Scales & Promotion

'New Entrant'?

Hi everyone.

Wondering how the above is defined in my case:
Resigned from FAS 10 years ago (permanent clerical officer - top of scale) due to child's medical condition.
Have now applied for an temp. 1year EA position in a university.
Salary criteria states "appointments with no previous public sector experience will be placed on the 1st point of 2011 salary scale".

What to you think? Am I back to where I started?
 
Most jobs will allow you incremental credit for previous public sector experience. If Fas is on this list then you will get credit for it. Make sure they know about the previous experience. Sometimes they will only give you the incremental credit when you are made permanent.
