OPM director Scott Kupor cites 7% early career share in government workforce

OPM Director Scott Kupor discussed the staffing issue on CNBC.

He said about 7% of the US government workforce is early in their career, with five to seven years of experience, compared with “almost a quarter” in the rest of the workforce.

“As we have people retiring from government, we’re not doing a great job of bringing in the next generation of leaders in government,”

Kupor said.

Kupor also said OPM and its private sector partners will hold a job fair after workers finish their government terms.

“What we’re really trying to demonstrate is that the work that you can do in government is both challenging, complex, and that if you decide ultimately you want to go into the private sector, that’s great, that work is valued,”

he said.

“You’ll have the opportunity to take that as the next stage of your career.”

Crypto companies and blockchain analytics firms already support US investigations

The report said crypto companies, including blockchain analytics firms, have supported US agencies in tracking cryptocurrency flows during criminal and regulatory investigations.

It also said US market regulators under the Trump administration have consulted with the crypto sector as their approach toward digital assets has warmed.
