GovLoop is proud to announce the release of our newest resource for up and coming leaders:
Presidential Management Fellows (PMF) Guide: Managing the Application Process

It's that time of year when many hopeful Presidential Management Fellow (PMF) candidates will start their journey and begin the PMF application process. The PMF program is a great way to start your career in the federal government.  GovLoop is excited to release a new guide that helps you navigate through the application process and advance your career in public service! Please let us know any way we can further help you out during the PMF application process. Be sure to keep us posted on how you are doing throughout the application process.

I just put my application in today and will hopefully receive the nomination from my school's Dean this week!  Really excited about applying for this program and hope I make it through all the stages.

I got into gov't in 1993 as a PMF (it was the Pres. Mgt. Internship back then, but only the name changed).  I'm still here.  I loved the program, and learned a lot.

 

One key point: unless things have changed, just consider yourself a new employee with some extra support.  Don't come in with an attitude that you're there to save the agency or that you're going to be a manager in short order.  You're not a "management fellow," you're basically a well-qualified employee with a lot of potential.

Thanx Pat for this useful info. For govloopers out of America (e.g. am from Kenya in Africa) what would be the application process? And do they stand even a whisker of a chance?
