How do I break into the political sphere?
As a high school sophomore looking to get into politics, living in an area that generally does not agree my ideology, or at least their perception of it, how do I break in and get a job in this field, or even potentially get elected? Do I even bother trying? Should I turn to one of my other interests (history or football), or channel my interest in politics in some other way, such as becoming a political influencer in the growing online political ecosystem?

How do I find a job post-grad in the political science sector ?
I just recently graduated from UCSB with a political science degree and I am very interested in international relations and community development, but I have no idea where to start, and it seems like the job market is scary. I would like to work for the government, but am considering going to law school as well. I have acquired relatively decent experience throughout undergrad: - I graduated with a 3.7 gpa from UCSB - I worked on a community development research project as a research assistant - I interned for a non profit organization in a position focused around community development and outreach - held a position in my sorority for a year Any tips/tricks/advice on how or where to look for a job?
