The Global Employment Initiative/Strategic Networking Assistance Program (GEI/SNAP) is a U.S. Department of State program designed to assist family members of U.S. government employees assigned to U.S. embassies and consulates abroad with all aspects of career management, including employment in the host country.

 

GEI/SNAP provides an alternative and cost-free solution to the staffing needs of international and local organizations by connecting them with the talent pool of Foreign Service family members available to work in-country.

 

The GEI/SNAP Advantage

• No overhead costs or placement fees to employers for recruiting Foreign Service family member candidates.
• Unlike expatriate recruitment, candidates are already in-country and do not require additional funding for relocation or housing.
• Candidates are flexible: available for full-time, part-time, consulting and project-based work.
• The bilateral work agreement between the U.S. and Israel allows for an expedited work permit process for candidates.
