May agencies make initial Career Intern appointments at grade levels other than GS-5, 7, or 9?
Yes. Agencies may make initial appointments at any grade level as long as the agency has an established 2-year training program at the grade level to which the Career Intern is to be appointed. Agencies may request OPM approval when filling Career Intern positions at other grade levels appropriate for the program.
