3. PERSONAL INTEREST…  I have always been interested in International Relations and Political Science.  It is a great way to get larger job opportunities.  Travel is a big part of the job and I love to travel so I would want to do a job that involves travelling.  Planning events is something I like that is also involved in the job.

4. QUESTIONS ASKED… What does your typical day look like?

5. QUESTIONS CONTINUED… What did you learn on the job that can’t be taught in school?

6. QUESTIONS CONTINUED… Where do you (or others) go from here, what would be your next step?

7. QUESTIONS CONTINUED… If you could tell your “high school self” one thing, what would it be?

8. RESULTS/ADVIC E…  Don’t go into life forcing yourself to follow only one thing, let yourself be open to go with opportunities you are given.  Learning how to manage chaos and find order in the craziest of situations is a tool you will use extensively.  Working at the White House, every day is different, so if you love schedules and consistency, this job is probably not for you.  Organization is HUGE! (planning parties, events, meetings, etc.)  Be prepared to travel to anywhere in the world and work with anyone (either Vice President, President, First Lady, etc.)  Must be a good team member and work well with others!
