More FTC Officials Jump to New Jobs

Two more staffers at the Federal Trade Commission are planning to leap to new jobs, according to The Deal.

Deputy general counsel John Graubert has confirmed that he will become a partner at Covington & Burling, according to the publication. He will join the firm’s antitrust and consumer law practice group.

Meanwhile sources told The Deal that Jeff Schmidt, the FTC’s top antitrust enforcer, will join U.K.-based Linklaters. Schmidt declined to confirm the information, saying he had made no decisions about his future.

The Deal reported last week that FTC Chair Deborah Platt Majoras will become deputy general counsel at Procter & Gamble.
