[quote=Anonymous]Here's the guidance our agency recently received.

Under terms of the freeze, hiring actions fall into the following categories:
 
•	Individuals who received a job offer/appointment prior to January 22, 2017, and have received a final offer letter that specifies a confirmed start date on or before February 22, 2017 can be hired as scheduled. Human Resources will contact each selectee to confirm the onboarding date and respond to any questions they may have.  
 
•	Individuals who received a job offer/appointment prior to January 22, 2017, and a final offer letter that specifies a confirmed start date after February 22, 2017, cannot be hired until a request has been submitted to Human Resources for approval in accordance with OMB-17-17.   The same is true for individuals who received a job offer/appointment prior to January 22, 2017, and do not yet have a confirmed start date.  Human Resources will contact each selectee to inform them of their status and respond to any questions they may have.  
 
•	For all other recruitment actions, including national security and public safety, offices may continue to advertise, examine, interview and communicate with candidates, however, no firm offers of employment or similar commitments may be extended unless an exemption is granted through upcoming implementing instructions.
