STATEHOUSE (Sept. 14, 2022) – State Rep. Bob Behning (R-Indianapolis) invites local college students and recent graduates of all majors to apply for a paid internship with Indiana House Republicans.
Behning said House interns will be paid $800 bi-weekly as they work at the Indiana Statehouse in downtown Indianapolis during the 2023 legislative session, which kicks off in January and concludes at the end of April. He said internships are available in several departments and are open to college sophomores, juniors and seniors, graduate students and recent graduates.
"This program offers a front-row seat to the state's lawmaking process, and the ability to make professional connections and learn skills that are beneficial in any career," Behning said. "College students and new grads should consider applying for this unique opportunity."
Paid, spring-semester intern positions are full time, Monday through Friday, and include free parking, career and professional development assistance, enrollment access to an Indiana government class, and opportunities to earn academic credits through the student's college or university. Interns are also eligible to apply for a competitive $3,000 scholarship to use toward undergraduate and graduate expenses.
According to Behning, students can apply for internships in a variety of departments related to their field of study, including legislative operations, policy, and communications and media relations.
