[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No OP. It doesn't sound like his work experience or education prepared him for DC. Try a smaller city as others have said[/quote] Please. D.C. is not the end all be all. Chances are that if you "made it" in D.C., especially in politics, your education and experience did not prepare you for any host of cities that you're frowning upon. Have fun explaining your "prestigious" Hill job to an interview panel at a Charlotte consulting firm. I agree with the above poster who called D.C. a coffin. It's true, and many people are stuck/bitter.[/quote] My experience in Charlotte is the consulting firms just love my Hill and think tank background. I rather enjoyed fielding competing job offers from them. Charlotte's not the most sophisticated of cities; despite all the transplants, it's still rather provincial. FWIW, I'm happily moving back to DC next month.[/quote]
