>> Start I have networking, I think, in thinking
about how you are best able to use your skill set.
You know, I think you can already start to tell an undergrad the types of things
that you're good at and that you, kind of, gain energy from doing.
I, kind of, feel like that's an important way of looking at it.
It's not just, you know, hey, I've always studied math and maybe I'll do math in some way.
But if you can gain energy from something and feel excited
by it I think you're going to end up doing better.
So if you can identify that, kind of, thing sooner, and assuming you identify some
of the things I've said, I think there are ways that you can start to get into government
and public service at a pretty early age because you can do things, like, volunteer,
internship type activities here in the region where you're at school.
Pretty much anywhere at a local level.
Or, depending on how much flexibility you have, at a national level.
And, so, that's, kind of, what I did.
I started, you know, taking pretty menial internship type positions
that still gave me exposure to some of these issues
and I could see how the government really impacts people's lives.
