Gia Has an Update on Her Career Dreams That Has Teresa Feeling Like a "Proud Mommy"
Gia Giudice has a new—yet familiar—address on The Real Housewives of New Jersey as she plans her next career move.
Gia Giudice is well on the way to achieving her legal dreams.
As proud mom Teresa Giudice shared on the latest episode of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, after graduating from college last year, Gia is working with a law firm and making plans to take her Law School Admission Test (LSAT).
“Gia graduated from Rutgers with a criminal justice degree and she moved back home,” Teresa shared. “She was working for an immigration firm, and now she’s working in corporate law.”
What is Gia Giudice's job?
According to Teresa, the jury is still out about what type of law Gia might want to pursue — but she is leaving her options open.
“Gia got into immigration law because of what happened with her dad, but she’s still thinking about what kind of law she wants to get into. She’s very focused. I’m a proud mommy of four beautiful daughters,” Teresa gushed.
After serving 41 months in prison for fraud, Gia’s father, Joe Giudice, was deported to Italy in the wake of his release and later moved to the Bahamas to be closer to his family.
Gia shared last year with Page Six that her father’s immigration struggle sparked her own interest in immigration law.
She told the outlet that a major “goal” she had was to try to get her father’s case “reevaluated” so that he’d be able to travel to the United States to visit his family.
“We have such a big family, and no matter what the situation is, gathering all of us to go visit him [is hard],” she said. “Even though he did move to Bahamas for us, for him to be closer, for the flight to be easier … like, plane tickets are still crazy expensive, and especially when everybody has off around the holidays [and] the airlines jump the prices up.”
What is Gia doing now?
Gia has a heartfelt tie to immigration law, but she isn’t ruling out other career possibilities. Gia is also working on building her brand as an influencer and has moved back home as she navigates her next move.

Yet even with the busy schedule, she told OK! Magazine in December that law school is “still in the cards” for her.
"I think there's a lot of pressure coming out of school [to get] everything done right away,” she admitted. “Everyone kind of expects you to have all the answers, especially in the public eye. I'm just taking it one day at a time and I'm kind of just doing what makes me happy."
The latest episode of The Real Housewives of New Jersey saw Gia taking a break from her obligations at work to talk with her mom.
“I enjoy the law side of it to form the contracts,” she shared of what she enjoys about her current position.
“When are you taking your LSATs again?” Teresa asked her.
“October and November,” Gia replied. “My score wasn’t bad at all, but like, I want higher.”
With aspirations like that, Gia is sure to find success no matter where the future leads her.
To catch up on all the latest with Teresa and her family, watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey on Sundays at 8/7c on Bravo or available streaming the next day on Peacock.
