University of Phoenix is pleased to share that alum Joshua
Hadnot, who has a doctorate of management from the University, has
been selected as a Presidential Management Fellowship Finalist for
the Class of 2022. The Presidential Management Fellows Program is

the Office’s website, 1,100 applicants representing approximately
99 different academic disciplines were selected as Finalists out of
8,065 applications received.
Hadnot has been employed with the City of Jasper Police
Department in Texas for the past 12 years and currently serves as a
Detective Sergeant within the Criminal Investigations Division. He

“Being selected for the PMF program energizes me to continue
striving to become a better leader, and most importantly, a better
public servant,” states Hadnot. “Having the potential to obtain a
career with the federal government is a dream come true, which has
been a culmination of hard work, challenging assignments, and
feedback that has molded me into a finalist for the program.”
Each year, the Presidential Management Fellowship program seeks
graduate students who have demonstrated a history of professional
and academic excellence, and who are willing to undergo a rigorous
multi-stage selection process. Finalists have the opportunity to
gain leadership development skills, interview for opportunities
with government agencies, and upon successful completion of the
fellowship, are eligible to transition into full-time government
positions.

Management Institute of Texas Leadership Command College. He has
served on numerous boards and community organizations, including
the Jasper Lake Sam Rayburn Chamber of Commerce Board, Deep East
