STATEHOUSE (Oct. 25, 2022) — State Rep. Bruce Borders (R-Jasonville) encourages college students and recent graduates to apply for a paid Statehouse internship before the Oct. 31 deadline.
Borders said college sophomores, juniors and seniors, as well as recent graduates and graduate students of all majors can apply for an internship with the Indiana House of Representatives. House interns will be paid $800 bi-weekly while working at the Indiana Statehouse in downtown Indianapolis during the 2023 legislative session, starting in January and concluding at the end of April.
"We rely on our interns to help ensure the session runs smoothly," Borders said. "This program is a great way for them to build skills they can use in any career and develop contacts that can open doors to employment."
Interested Hoosiers should visit indianahouserepublicans.com/internship and complete the application before Oct. 31. According to Borders, intern interviews are currently taking place to fill positions in legislative operations, policy, and communications and media relations departments.
Internships 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.
