[jobsthatareLEFT] In DC this summer? Join us!: 2016 Democratic GAIN Summer Brownbag Series

Summer is upon us! It's a season for barbecues, vacations, pool time...and career development?


Democratic GAIN is thrilled to announce our 2016 Summer Brownbag Series, our FREE program to help students and recent graduates understand how to work in politics as a profession. We provide trainings and panels to develop skills, as well as fun social events to network with other like-minded individuals pursuing a career in politics.

 

So if you're in DC for an internship, classes - or any other reason this summer - sign up for one lunch time session - or for all of them! It's a great way to experience our nation's capital this summer, while exploring all of the exciting places your career journey can take you next!


Hope to see you there,


Tara
