If you want to do banking/finance, do it now. Don't waste your time in government work doing something totally unrelated. If you start your banking/finance career now (instead of after you leave the Human Rights Commission), then you will be further ahead down the road and higher up the ladder. If the govt position actually related to finance/banking then it would be ok, it would actually be very good due to all the networking you could do. But it's not. Remember, kids who want to be famous baseball players don't go off and join the golf team, they play baseball.

If you are from West Virginia, {wvu?} you can do what many of your fellow Mountianeers do. Go and fill up your gas tank and drive as far south as it will take you. That should land you in the middle of Charlotte where there is no shortage of banking industry jobs. Go with the gov’mnt job, I wouldn’t imagine that would be a major hinderance in seeking employment down the road. Being in a leadership role should look pretty good on a resume as well.
