Hannah Zakaria (West Wing Receptionist) — $48,800
According to the 2019 payroll, 60 White House employees had below fifty thousand dollars salary. One of those staff was Hannah Zakaria. She became an intern in the White House in September 2018 under the presidency of Trump. After three months, Zakaria held the position of west wing receptionist. Leah Katz-Hernandez was the person who got the role in 2016 under Obama’s term. Hernandez was getting paid for forty-eight thousand dollars.
Kellyanne Conway (Assistant To The President And Senior Counselor) — $183,000
There might be many employees in the White House that got the title of assistant to the President, but only Kellyanne Conway held the senior counselor position. Conway was already with Trump during the campaign. Conway was paid for one hundred eighty-three thousand dollars. However, there was no senior counselor under Obama’s term. We could think that Conway’s position was important because she was one of the highest-paid employees in the White House.
