A college degree will typically get you a GS-7 if your grades were good, GS-5 should be easy. Are you still near the Gettysburg area? There may not be much up that way, but if you're willing to move east a bit there are always hundreds of postings for Ft Dietrick, Aberdeen Proving Grounds (my home), and the DC metro area.
Job fairs are great places to make contacts. Check out the nearby schools and see if the government is recruiting there, you usually don't need to be a student. I graduated from VT, but I ultimately got hired from a contact I met at UMD. Those sorts of personal contacts will mean more than a random resume online.
