I was curious about the names of the people who have been officially nominated for government positions which require Senate confirmation so I did some basic research:
So far of the 690 positions 27 announced with nobody confirmed yet.
It is typical to wait until after the Secretary of the Department has been confirmed before submitting the names for under and assistant secretary etc.
Ambassadors to the most "significant" nations can be expected to submitted after Secretary of state has been confirmed. Other ambassadors may well be continued for some time.
The people I am most interested for confirmation are as following:
1. Retired USMC General James Mattis for Secretary of the Department of Defense
2. Jeff Sessions for Attorney General and Secretary of the Department of Justice
3. Rex Wayne Tillerson for Secretary of the Department of State
4. Wilbur Ross for Secretary of the Department of Commerce
5. Todd Ricketts for Deputy secretary of the Department of Commerce
6. Vincent Viola for Secretary of the Department of the Army
7. Betsy DeVos for Secretary of the Department of the Education
8. Rick Perry for Secretary of the Department of Energy
9. Dr. Tom Price for Secretary of the Department of Health & Human Services Secretary
10. Seema Verma for Administrator, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services
11. Gen. John F. Kelly for Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security
12. Dr. Ben Carson for Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development
13. Andrew Puzder for Secretary of the Department of Labor
14. Elaine Chao for Secretary of the Department of Transportation
15. David Shulkin for Secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs
16. Ryan Zinke for Secretary of the Department the Interior
17. Steve Mnuchin for Secretary of the Department the Treasury
18. Nikki Haley for United States representative to the United Nations
19. Robert E. Lighthizer for U.S. trade representative
20. Mick Mulvaney for Director, Office of Management and Budget
21. Scott Pruitt for Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency
22. Linda McMahon for Administrator of the Small Business Administration
23. Michael Pompeo for Director, Central Intelligence Agency
24. Dan Coats for Director of the Office of national Intelligence
25. Jay Clayton for Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission

The Post and Partnership for Public Service, a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization, are tracking nearly 700 executive branch appointments through the nomination process. These positions include Cabinet secretaries, deputy and assistant secretaries, chief financial officers, general counsel, heads of agencies, ambassadors and other critical leadership positions. All require Senate confirmation.
[ Here are the people whose names have been floated for Trump’s Cabinet]
The Senate confirmation process can begin when the newly elected 115th Congress convenes on Jan. 3, 2017 — two weeks before Trump’s inauguration. The Senate can begin holding hearings to confirm Trump’s eventual nominees during this period.
[ How long Cabinet confirmations take — and why past nominees failed]
In total, the transition team may need to find appointees for 4,100 positions.
