capitol hill

Post by synergy » Mon Jul 23, 2012 8:42 pm

I'm a rising 2l at a DC-area law school and I'm getting more and more intrigued by a possible career on capitol hill. I know many people here are gonna say that I should drop out but I have a partial scholarship and I do enjoy law school. One thing that's holding me back is, I don't know if I want to be in DC forever. I certainly don't mind staying post-graduation for a few years but eventually I'd like to move elsewhere. Are there any capitol hill jobs outside of DC? The only one I can think of is working with a local congressman but what is the career path like if I went that route?

Think about why they're called Capitol Hill jobs...
