Printed page 57 2. Executive Office of the President
“A future Administration should consider hiring that reflects the White House calendar (mid-January) and involves the Office of Presidential Personnel.”
What has happened
- Not started
Nothing published changes how the Council of Economic Advisers hires its senior economists. The Quote asks for a hiring cycle aligned to the White House calendar rather than the academic year, run with the Office of Presidential Personnel; CEA senior economists are term appointments that leave no Federal Register or nomination record, and no OMB or Presidential Personnel guidance in the window addresses them. The Council's own Federal Register footprint in the window is limited to performance review board notices.

Research notes
Negative search. In the federal records we keep and search: Council of Economic Advisers documents in the Federal Register; Senate nominations for CEA (Chairman and Members only); OMB memoranda index M-25-10 to M-26-17; the personnel executive orders of the window (EO 14170 on federal hiring, EO 14171 and EO 14410 on Schedule Policy/Career, EO 14284 on probationary periods, EO 14317 on Schedule G, EO 14356 on hiring accountability) listed by title, none of which reaches CEA economist hiring. This is an internal practice that may never be published.
