Well, apply for it anyway. If you get an interview, you can (optionally) express that you have limited experience with banding but would be willing to travel for training. (Say, a few weeks with a master bander.)

Remember, you don't know who else is applying; it might be others with even less experience.

Edit: I just realized you would be applying noncompetitively.... so my previous sentence didn't make much sense. Well, if nothing else, you could learn something about this Schedule A process.

I've applied to positions using schedule A before and got interviews but obviously I still wasn't hired. I know that I meet the basic qualifications they ask for so I should get some consideration.
