This is especially true of the lower ranking cabinet secretaries.
The United States Senate is responsible for approving presidential appointments. This includes cabinet appointments, ambassadors, judges, and several other levels.
A presidential appointment is one to a position in the judicial branch, the presidential Cabinet, or in any federal agency within the behemoth that is our bureaucracy. Many appointees undergo a nomination process where they are either confirmed or rejected by the United State Senate. There are several thousand other appointments to other positions as members of boards and heads of agencies which do not require confirmation. Those which require confirmation by the Senate are designated in the Constitution or in legislation which establishes the position involved. Military commissions require confirmation, as well.

The House of Representatives does not have the authority to approve federal government appointments; this responsibility lies with the Senate. The Senate confirms presidential nominations for federal judges, cabinet members, and other key officials. The House's role is primarily in the legislative process and budgetary matters. Therefore, while both chambers of Congress play crucial roles, only the Senate is involved in the approval of federal appointments.
