Before Facebook
After graduating from Harvard, Randi Zuckerberg worked for two years in marketing for advertising firm Ogilvy & Mather. She has stated in articles and interviews that to her it was a dream job in which she enjoyed the work and was on a good track for professional advancement.
In late 2004, her brother Mark Zuckerberg asked Randi Zuckerberg to join him at his startup Facebook, which he said was understaffed with people willing to travel and who could explain his vision. Randi Zuckerberg took a position which required relocation and a cut in pay but with stock options. Randi has stated that she initially thought this was a temporary position which might last six months. Once there in Silicon Valley and part of the innovation driven community, however, she became fascinated with the possibilities and remained ten years.
Ranked among 50 "Digital Power Players" by The Hollywood Reporter in 2010, Zuckerberg organized, and was also a correspondent for the ABC News/Facebook Democratic Party and Republican Party U.S. Presidential primaries debates in 2008. She also fulfilled a correspondent role at the CNN/Facebook Inauguration Day Partnership in 2009, the Comcast Facebook Diaries event, and the 2008 Facebook Democratic National Convention (DNC) and Republican National Conventions.

On the evening of November 2, 2010, Zuckerberg worked at a "town hall" assembled by ABC News as part of its television coverage of the U.S. national midterm elections.
