Those finalists are then eligible for appointment as fellows at participating agencies and begin the leadership program at the entry level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the PMF website, an average of 50 to 60 percent of finalists are selected for appointments as fellows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"http:\/\/careermatters.federaltimes.com\/2013\/04\/29\/maximize-your-time-as-a-presidential-management-fellow\/\" target=_blank>fellowships last two years<\/a> as a full-time paid position with benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PMF alumnus include former NASA Administrator Sean O\u2019Keefe, who oversaw the agency during the Mars Exploration Rover program and the space shuttle Colombia explosion in 2003.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PMF graduates have worked on major agency initiatives, such as the Department of Veterans Affairs\u2019 Task Force on Multi-Generational Recruitment and Retention, and gone on to win coveted public service awards, such as the Service to America Medal\u2019s People&#8217;s Choice award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Applications for the 2019 class of fellows open Oct. 9, 2018, and close Oct. 22. The announcement of the 2019 finalists is scheduled for approximately four weeks after applications close.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Presidential Management Fellows
