Understanding U.S. Federal Hiring

Hiring U.S. federal government employees

Use the Add Employment Instance USF component to enter federal employment data for hiring an existing person of interest (POI) or contingent worker (CWR) as a federal employee. You also use this component to create additional appointments for existing federal employees.

See Adding a Person.

The pages that are included in the PAR process store specific information and contain links to supplemental pages that provide further details. The following table lists four components:
