Are there other circumstances under which OPM will not review the proposed hiring of a current of former political appointee for a career position?
Yes. We will not review hiring under 5 CFR 315, subpart F, and 5 CFR 337, subpart B. These regulations allow for non-competitive appointments to the Federal civil service under certain conditions (e.g. direct-hire; the appointment of 30 percent or more disabled veterans; the appointment of Peace Corps personnel and certain former overseas employees).
