SUBJECT: IO, IO, IT'S OFF TO WORK WE GO! 
 
¶1. Still looking for your next assignment?  The Bureau of 
International Organization Affairs has a great job for 
you.  We are the "Bureau without Borders" -- that means 
exciting positions in fantastic cities working on 
front-page issues with global implications.  Your tour in 
IO will be a rewarding one. 
 
¶2. Do you like to travel?  Our Washington jobs usually 
involve overseas travel to attend conferences, conduct 
bilateral and multilateral negotiations, and meet with 
experts.  Our non-Washington vacancies are in some of the 
world's political, cultural, and commercial hubs -- New 
York, Geneva, and Vienna.  Our positions are accompanied, 
and offer COLAs rather than differentials, but your work 
will be noticed by promotion boards. 
 
¶3.  Do you like multilateral work?  IO will give you a 
unique opportunity to do both multilateral and bilateral 
negotiations and policy-making.  IO officers develop 
important relationships with delegates from the many 
countries of the world that are members of UN bodies, 
security organizations, international fora, specialized 
agencies and other groups.  You'll develop expert 
negotiating skills to use throughout your career.  And you 
will work within the Department and through the 
interagency process to implement existing policies and 
shape new ones. 
 
¶4.  How will IO work for you?  We will make sure your tour 
leads to your professional advancement.  We have many jobs 
that will help you meet the elective requirements of the 
Career Development Program (CDP).  For example, some of 
our positions in Washington have significant and 
substantial supervisory responsibility, which will help 
you meet the "leadership effectiveness" elective of the 
Career Development Program.  Many of our Washington 
positions are also interfunctional, where you'll work on 
cross-cutting issues like multilateral policy 
coordination, political-military relations and refugee 
coordination -- all of which fill the needs for the 
"operational effectiveness" elective.  And it's important 
to add that our Front Office works hard to give all 
officers experience throughout the building and to provide 
opportunities for officers at all levels to give feedback 
on how their IO experience is going. 
 
¶5. There have been important changes to the bidding 
process this year.  While bids on all positions are due 
the same day (October 26), HR will not release bid books 
(lists of official bidders) to the Bureaus until the 
respective season (Pre, Early, and Regular/Stretch) in 
which the job may be filled.  This means bidders need to 
share their bids and preferences across the seasons with 
the JEX/HR.  For IO Management and Specialists positions, 
contact Jamie Patrick (x6-4615) through the 
EUR-IO-Bid-Mgt-Spec mailbox on the GAL.  For IO Policy and 
PD positions, contact James Plasman (x7-0692) through the 
IO-Bid-Pol-PD mailbox on the GAL. 
 
¶6. Please take the time to browse the descriptions for 
vacancies in FSBid and contact the points of contact and 
the incumbents below about the positions. We look forward 
to hearing from you!
