President-elect Donald Trump's nominees for top posts in his administration are gearing up for their Senate confirmation hearings, which kick off this week.

Senate hearings are scheduled this coming week for several of Trump’s picks for the Cabinet. Many have met with senators individually. Now, they will go before the committees overseeing the agencies that Trump wants them to run. Here’s a look at the schedule for Senate hearings set so far, in Eastern time:
