Connect with FLO
The Family Liaison Office (FLO)
has two LinkedIn groups for Foreign Affairs family members. The FLO Global Employment
Initiative (GEI) group focuses on practical job search resources and
tips from Global Employment Advisors around the world.
The FLO Telework Connection group
serves family members interested in telework opportunities and is a first step
in a pilot project to connect talented family members with potential employers.
Also, the FLO
Weekly e-newsletter can be delivered each week to your email inbox. Just
email FLOPublications@state.gov to be added to the distribution list.
And don’t forget to check out our website, www.state.gov/m/dghr/flo, which houses over 90%
of our information and resources.
Did you know?
That 17% of
all family members work outside the mission? EFMs are permitted to work in
countries with which the U.S. has a Bilateral Work Agreement or De facto work
arrangement. Before accepting a position outside the mission, EFMs
must secure approval from the Chief of Mission. Family members can use the new Chief of Mission Approval Memo
template, or check with post to learn if they have their own
post-specific template. For any family member employment related questions,
email FLOAskEmployment@state.gov.
