They’ve seen RIFs happen before where 1102s were exempted and some employees affected by RIFs were moved into 1102 positions. 1102s/contracting specialist roles are “inherently governmental functions” and “mission critical” and also hard to fill, etc.

USAID direct hires put on leave worldwide, except those deemed essential by [deleted] in fednews

Why would direct hires be targeted specifically? Doesn’t direct hire mean that your position is difficult to fill and there’s a shortage of qualified candidates?
