Consultants are non-CRS employees who are engaged for short periods to perform a distinct assignment over which they have control. They are not eligible for the benefits employees receive (such as insurance).
Consultants may not supervise CRS employees. If the responsibilities of a position require that the person supervise CRS staff, then you should look for a TDY or short term hire.
An International Consultant is any consultant who is not a national of the country where you are working. (If you need help with National Consultants instead, click here.)
The HQ HR department has set up a page on Global that gives all the details of how to hire an international consultant.
Employee Services, Working With Consultants (you will get a Global sign-on page first)
We have also attached the documents from that page here, just in case you don’t have a good internet connection.
