Politicians organize their daily responsibilities depending on the level of government they work with. A local politician will likely spend more time face-to-face with community members solving local issues than a national politician who spends time traveling to different states campaigning and meeting with community leaders. Politicians often have a staff of employees to help them manage their responsibilities, especially during election season. They rely on people who believe in their candidacy and are willing to provide professional expertise and network on their behalf to reach voters and policymakers. People who are interested in building a career in politics but do not want to be politicians themselves often work as an employee of a politician affiliated with their political beliefs.
