STATEHOUSE (Oct. 24, 2024) – The Oct. 31 deadline to apply for an Indiana House Republican internship during the 2025 legislative session is fast approaching, according to area lawmakers.
State Rep. Chris Jeter (R-Fisher) said this full-time, spring semester internship is Monday through Friday at the Statehouse in Indianapolis during the legislative session, which will start in January and conclude in April. House interns earn $900 biweekly and can gain academic credit through their college or university.
"Interns get to network with lawmakers, business owners and other professionals in the public and private sectors from around the state," Jeter said. "I encourage students of all majors to apply now for this experience and opportunity to build their resume."
State Rep. Cory Criswell (R-Middletown) said interested college sophomores, juniors, seniors, graduate students and recent graduates of all majors should visit indianahouserepublicans.com/internship to complete the application before Oct. 31.
“As someone who spent years in education, I know how valuable internships can be for a student's personal and professional growth,” Criswell said. “Whether you are interested in law, policy or communications, this internship gives you the skills and connections that can launch you into a great career.”
State Rep. Bob Cherry (R-Greenfield) said Indiana House internships include free parking, career and professional development assistance, and enrollment access to an Indiana government class. Interns are also eligible to apply for a competitive $3,000 scholarship to use toward undergraduate and graduate expenses.
"I’ve had the pleasure of working with many interns during my time in the House,” Cherry said. “This program helps shape careers for students and allows them to participate in meaningful work that impacts our state.”
The program offers opportunities for students to work in various departments related to their studies, including legislative operations, policy and communications.
Applications are available online at indianahouserepublicans.com/internship and are due by Oct. 31.
