the Europe Summer Hire Application (ESH).
AE Form 690-70A is the application form that employment respondents
must complete to be considered for positions in Germany. The form is
written in both English and German. The completed form is stored as a
record of the respondent's personal information, education, employment
history, military history, and availability, as well as a list of
applicable language(s) and other skills. If this form is not submitted,
the respondent will not be eligible for employment positions through
LNSS. Personally Identifiable Information (PII) on the AE Form 690-70A
is entered into the LNSS system by the Administration Assistant.
Local National Recruitment System (LNRS) is a component of Local
National Staffing Suite (LNSS). LNRS was developed to automate German
Local National (LN) recruitment processes for United States Army Europe
(USAREUR). The application supports the Army Civilian Personnel
Operations Center (CPOC) and services Civilian Personnel Advisory
Centers (CPACs) in Europe. The application is primarily used to
automate local national recruitment processes for USAREUR including
Priority Placement, Reduction In Force, and Referrals, while taking
into account the Local National Tariff Agreements. LNRS is accessible
at the following URL: https://acpol2.army.mil/lnrs.
Europe Summer Hire Application (ESH) is a component of Local
National Staffing Suite (LNSS). ESH is a Web-based government developed
Linux application accessible at https://acpol2.army.mil/sh/staffing/summerhire. ESH allows the accumulation of resume data for summer
hiring of German local nationals to work in and support the Army
USAREUR civilian personnel community. ESH is designed to contain and
rank resumes of local nationals in USAREUR area to work in and support
the Army civilian personnel community and to allow the HR Specialist to
review the resume information. ESH consists of a Linux web/application
server using Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) and a Linux
database server using Oracle.
Korean National Recruitment System (KNRS) respondents are
employment applicants. KNRS was developed to provide immediate and
accurate status/response to applicants via a Web-based interface. KNRS
provides customers with a timely and more reliable customer service
system. It also eliminates the long wait periods when recruiting Korean
National (KN) employees to support the Army's FN mission. Respondents
(applicants) enter their own employment application information
directly into the electronic form in the system. The electronic form is
a record of the respondent's personal information, education,
employment history, military history, and other qualifications and
skills. If this electronic form is not submitted, the respondent will
not be eligible for the KN employment position. KNRS is accessible at
the following URL: https://lr.acpol.army.mil/knrs/selfservice.
