American Review of Public AdministrationSummary: The Presidential Management Internship Program (PMIP) was established in an effort to attract young individuals to the federal service. Since its creation, few studies have examined the characteristics of the interns selected for the program. This study investigates not only the intern characteristics but also the institutions that nominated them. Two findings are of particular interest. First, because few minorities are nominated for PMIP, the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) should continue to take measures to attract minorities to the PMI program. Second, the study found that a few programs/schools dominate the PMI program. This therefore suggests that OPM should continue to reach out to graduate programs that do not have a history of involvement with PMIP. - Reproduced
