It depends. Which will likely be the answer for the next 4 years as we navigate with an Administration comprised almost entirely of people who’ve never worked in government and have no idea how it works.

Are you responding to me, or to the OP? I’ve worked in government for 18 years, through multiple administrations and the first clown show from 2017-2021. I’m well aware of how this all works. The one thing that’s a little different is we’ve never had a “revenge” president before, or a separate “shadow” Cabinet made up of lunatic billionaires, so that’ll be an interesting new wrinkle.

Need help from the Hivemind. I am a rising 4th year who has only been at my firm for a little over a year (after a few clerkships).

I’m applying to a Fed agency that I’m really excited about, but the application requires a reference from your current supervisor. I haven’t told the firm I’m thinking about leaving. How would you handle this?
