Sally

“I have the best of both worlds. I have my home here in Washington D.C. and I do travel frequently, usually four or five times a year. I’ve been to 56 countries. I don’t think there is any other place I could do that.”

Ron

“The Department of State offers the ability to do something for my country, and that was the most inviting aspect to it all. It’s very difficult to live in Washington and not be a part of the political scene, and I think that once you connect you begin to understand what Washington is all about and that was what drew me to it.”

Rene

“It’s like a whole different life for me, a whole different journey. It’s been challenging but it’s been fun at the same time. I’ve gotten to do things I’ve never dreamed of to work in a place. I would never have dreamed that Hillary Clinton would have been my boss.”

Margaux

“I would definitely encourage anybody, no matter what age, to definitely look at the State Department because as I’m a great example, I don’t have the political science or international-type background. I studied sociology, business and Russian and the State Department has a variety of different types of people different backgrounds that really promote different thoughts and work experiences.”
