Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop a research agenda and raise practical issues relating to the increasing complexity of the internationally mobile professional. Design/methodology/approach The paper considers the developing issues in the use of alternative forms of international assignment (short-term, commuter, flexpatriate) and the existence of the independent internationally mobile professional and raises questions for research and practice. Findings The paper suggests that alternative forms of international assignment and assignee are under- researched. Additionally, the large number of independently mobile professionals in the global economy need to be further researched, while organizations should recruit for international assignments from the external as well as internal labour markets when circumstances allow. Originality/value The paper raises under-researched questions in the study of international assignments and suggests more strategic approaches to the practice of managing international assignments.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
