Lesson Objectives
- There are seemingly endless offices in the executive branch, but how does the federal government hire people to fill thousands of positions? The process is different for candidates seeking a job as a career civil servant or a political appointee in the executive branch. Not only is the hiring process different, but so is the departure. Political appointees terminate at the end of an administration, while career civil servants continue working.
- This lesson is designed to provide insight into how the federal government hires employees.
