The
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is recruiting for the Director’s
Financial Analyst position, and we want to encourage UMD students or recent
graduates to apply. Eligible applicants will have graduated in the last
two years or will graduate by December 2017.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
This
unique, two-year rotational fellowship sits at the intersection of the federal
government and the financial services industry. Director’s Financial Analysts
are given the opportunity to hone analytical and problem solving skills while
helping to make markets for consumer financial products work for Americans. Members of the Director’s Financial Analyst Program will
experience diverse roles, responsibilities, and areas of expertise. As a
result, in a short period of time, analysts will play an integral role in
everything the CFPB does, from rigorous data-driven policy creation and market
monitoring to on-site supervision of market participants. All analysts will
complete developmental rotations in offices throughout the CFPB. These
rotations are designed to provide exposure to the analysis, strategy, research,
education, policy development, supervision, enforcement, and rulemaking
activities throughout the Bureau.
We
are recruiting for positions that begin in October 2017 or later. The
fellowship is a full-time position located at the CFPB’s headquarters in Washington,
D.C.
