Perino offered Kate DePetro a coveted assistant position on her team after meeting her only a handful of times.
DePetro posted an Instagram photo of herself proudly standing behind the White House press room podium.
She tagged her boss in the caption, saying, “@danaperino, how do I look at the podium?”
“What a wonderful trip to D.C. I am so thankful & it was an adventure I’ll never forget!” she wrote, adding a heart emoji.
Perino commented on the rising star’s post, “Brilliant!!”
On her TikTok platform (@katedepetro), DePetro detailed how she landed her job in a video that has garnered over 30,000 views.
She said many of the followers have requested the “storytime” of how she met her current boss and how she began her news career at Fox News.
The Rhode Island native said she always knew she wanted to live in Manhattan which is why she chose to attend Hofstra University, a college that is only an hour outside New York City.
Although she studied and worked as a public relations specialist, DePetro said her father’s own career as a local news reporter inspired her to pursue the same path.
She noted that from a very young age, DePetro engaged in political discussions with her family.

Her father had always been involved in Rhode Island’s political scene, emceeing the only Trump rally held in Rhode Island in April 2016.
DePetro decided to quit her job after working at a public relations agency for only three months.
She was thrilled to learn about an opening at Fox and Friends through a sorority connection.
After being promoted within the company, she told her followers about some of the amazing talent she worked with, including guest stars like Mark Wahlberg and political icons like Nikki Haley.

One of the guests happened to be her soon-to-be boss — Dana Perino.
When the Fox News star appeared on set, DePetro approached her and struck up a conversation.
She had already read Perino’s book and said it was exactly what she “needed to hear” at that point in her life.
“I went right up to her and said, ‘I love your book. I read it. It changed my life,’” she explained in the TikTok video.
“We stayed connected. When an assistant job came about, she offered it to me,” DePetro said.
DePetro ended the video with this piece of advice for young professionals: “I think that if you work hard, you’re positive, and you show up every day with a good attitude willing to work your butt off — people will recognize that and want to help you.”
