Advancement Prospects
A press secretary who has worked closely with a successful government official may advance into a higher staff position, like chief of staff or legislative director. When their job is completed, press secretaries may move on to other jobs in media. Network TV, cable, and radio news departments also hire successful media relations experts to serve as political analysts on the air. Some press secretaries move on to write columns for newspapers and syndicates and publish books about their insights into politics.
