Shownotes Transcript

You may have heard of Tinx’s rich mom starter pack, but this is better – it's a working in DC starter pack. It’s basically a how-to on how to get your foot in the door in the world of DC political careers. Covering the networking do’s, the devil in the details of applying for jobs, and even the ups and downs of trying to find accommodations in the nation’s capital, this episode gets into it all. And who spills all of this incredibly useful tea? Jessica Gail, who works as the Communications Director for Congressman Swalwell [yes, yes you may know him from coming on the show – or a number of other notorious moments, like his run for president]. Jess started her career in journalism and made her way to DC, and has loads of advice for how to make it all happen and also deal with the wild atmosphere that is DC.
