It takes a while to get your dream job

So you just graduated. Obviously, you will start work a few weeks later changing the world. Not quite.

When you first start working for the government, you will probably do a lot of menial tasks. Meaning, you will more than likely be answering the phone, filing something or serving more of an administrative role that you probably think you should be.

That is okay. Your first few years on the job, you will be doing the tasks noone else wants to do- because you are the lowest level person working there. I repeat, that is okay. Everyone had to start at the bottom, either as an intern or as an administative assistant.

Just tough it out and eventually you will get that dream job :)
