Pathways to Government: Presidential Management Fellows (PMF) Program Information Session

Pathways to Government: Presidential Management Fellows Program Information Session
Tuesday, October 30, 12:30-1:30 pm, McDonough 140

Are you interested in working for the federal government? Learn more about the Presidential Management Fellows (PMF) Program and hear directly from Georgetown Law Center alums who found positions as PMFs.
What is the PMF program? This is a prestigious two-year paid fellowship program working with Federal Government agencies. PMF assignments include domestic and international issues, public policy, public administration, technology, science, criminal justice, health, financial management, and many other fields in support of public service programs. Note: This program is not designed to place applicants in legal positions; rather, this is a program for those interested in management, public policy, and government leadership positions. However, PMFs do rotations through other divisions or agencies, and Georgetown Law alumni have successfully moved into legal positions upon competition of their PMF commitments. Typical PMF placements for law graduates include policy analyst, budget analyst, tax law specialist, and other non-attorney positions.
