Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) Director’s Financial Analyst (DFA) Position
Hello,
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is recruiting for the Director’s Financial Analyst (DFA) position to start in June of 2024. I am a current DFA, and I have found the program to be excellent. I am reaching out to encourage graduating seniors or recent graduates to apply.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The CFPB DFA Program is a highly selective, two-year rotational fellowship designed to engage young professionals in meaningful public service. Each year, the CFPB hires a new cohort of Director’s Financial Analysts to work alongside senior policymakers and researchers and help make financial markets work better for all.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
Director’s Financial Analysts utilize their analytical capabilities to support initiatives including, but not limited to, research, benchmarking, comparative analysis, data analysis, problem solving, collaboration, and project management. DFAs will complete two year-long rotations in various offices gaining an understanding of the CFPB’s mission and work through exposure to multiple policy areas.
Visit the CFPB DFA Program webpage at https://www.consumerfinance.gov/about-us/careers/students-and-graduates/cfpb-directors-financial-analyst-program/ to learn more about program eligibility and application requirements, upcoming informational webinars, and how to apply during the live application window.
If you have questions or want to be added to our mailing list, please send an email to CFPB_DFA_Program@cfpb.gov. You can also reach out to me at Nicholas.Kime@cfpb.gov to hear more about my experience as a DFA.
