Seeking/Negotiating Employment With Person signing contract on behalf of the U.S. GovernmentContractors

Generally, Government employees may not work on Government matters affecting contractors with which they are seeking employment. Seeking employment includes (but is not limited to) unsolicited contacts about possible employment, such as sending a resume to a firm or contractor.

Government employees may not work on Government matters affecting the financial interests of a contractor if they make any response other than rejection to a contractor's unsolicited overture about possible employment.

Example: A Government employee who just interviewed with your company for a job may not work on any procurement matter concerning your company.
