The
Staff of the Office of
Management and Budget
The
OMB staff are staff to the President. OMB staff are highly-motivated
and well-trained individuals. Over ninety percent of the staff hold
career, rather than political, appointments. Over seventy percent
of the staff are professionals, most with graduate degrees in economics,
business and accounting, public administration and policy, law,
engineering, and other disciplines. The OMB career staff provide
objective analyses on a full range of policy options to be considered
by decision-makers.
OMB's
staff interact daily with high-level officials throughout Government.
OMB's work requires the following: sharp analytical and quantitative
skills; the ability to effectively present ideas and analyses both
orally and in writing; and the ability to interact constructively
with others, often under high pressure and tight deadlines.
The
environment in which OMB operates is fast-paced. Issues are diverse,
cross-cutting, complex, politically sensitive, and frequently involve
billions of dollars in resources.
