Are you a rising leader interested in confronting the nation’s most pressing challenges through public service? The Presidential Management Fellows Program is one of the most prestigious leadership and professional development programs of the U.S. Government. Learn more about the 2021 Fellowship during this virtual info session on Wednesday, May 27th.
If you are interested in working for the federal government and have a passion for public service, the Presidential Management Fellowship Program (PMF Program) is for you! Since 1977 the PMF Program has matched outstanding graduate students with exciting federal opportunities.
The PMF Program is a flagship leadership development program at the entry level for advanced-degree candidates. It is a great leadership training ground, whether prospective students want a career in public service or elsewhere. Based on current PMF Program regulations and policies, eligible individuals apply and participate in a rigorous application and assessment process. Those ultimately selected as Finalists seek appointments as PMFs (Fellows). PMFs perform valuable service to the American people while jump-starting their careers, and get full salary and benefits as well as challenging assignments, formal professional training, rotations to other agencies, feedback on their work, plus an opportunity to make government run more efficiently. The two-year fellowship is a full-time, paid appointment.
The two-year fellowship includes:
- Formal training of 80 hours each year of the fellowship
- Including a PMF Leadership Development Program
- An Individual Development Plan, a career journey map
- An assigned senior-level Mentor
- At least one 4-6 month developmental assignment
