About
The Presidential Management Fellows (PMF) Program is administered by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM). Each year, candidates apply for the prestigious title of PMF Finalists. Selected Finalists are eligible for appointment as Fellows. While there are many developmental opportunities afforded you during your two-year fellowship, the primary task of each PMF is to claim ownership for your learning, career development, and advancement. Some ways to do this are offered below:
You must work closely with your Agency PMF Coordinator, supervisor, and mentor, to ensure that you are on track for the agency's Executive Review Board (ERB) review at the end of your fellowship journey. At the end of the 2-year journey, the agency's ERB will review your progress and certify that all PMF Program requirements were successfully completed. If favorably ERB certified, the agency may convert without further competition to a term or permanent position. This must be done within the allotted time frame allowed by PMF regulations. Agency PMF Coordinators, supervisors, and mentors should be familiar with their agency's ERB requirements and any additional guidelines you must follow for successful certification. Please work closely with your agency to ensure all is completed on time.
Application
The PMF Program accepts applications annually. When the application window opens, you will find an announcement on USAJOBS (search for "Presidential Management Fellows" at www.USAJOBS.gov). We strongly encourage you to review the entire Become A PMF section of this website, including the Frequently Asked Questions.
Applying to the Program is only the first step in becoming a PMF. During the application process, you must take an on-line assessment, submit a resume and transcript, and complete the on-line essays. Applicants will be further evaluated for selection as Semi-Finalists and invited to participate in the in-person assessment. Top performing Semi-Finalists will be named as Finalists. Finalists are eligible for appointment as a Fellow with a participating agency.
Applications must include the following:
- Resume
- Transcripts
- Letters of Recommendation
- Cover Letters
- Writing Samples
