Feeling a bit isolated in my department. How do you connect with colleagues in other branches or agencies to broaden your professional network? I’ve been in my role for a while now, but it feels like I only interact with the same small group of people. I know building a network is key for growth, but in government, everything feels so siloed. Have you found effective ways to meet people outside your immediate team—conferences, interagency projects, professional associations?

Look for trainings outside you team, branch, or division. Go to retirement/departure parties, even if you hardly know the person. See if there is a mentorship program. If you are bold, walk up to someone and ask them about their job.

Looking for some UGC gigs. I can do unboxing and demos. Rates start at $100 for a video, and $20 per photo. which is significantly lower than others in the market. Just trying to get more content creation under my belt. I specialize in social media as a director in a marketing agency, so I know what will perform. Give me a holler if you need UGC for your brands! :)
