My wife is trying to maintain her federal service as a Nurse Practitioner and the BOP is the only federal employer in the area hiring right now. Do you know if they offer retention incentives to NP's to get them up to market pay? I noticed you said you got it as an RN, so I didn't know if it translated that way to NP's as well. She's currently a GS-12 Step 4. Also, how are you liking the job so far?
