STATEHOUSE (Sept. 26, 2022) – State Rep. Matt Lehman (R-Berne) invites local college students and recent graduates of all majors to apply for a paid internship with Indiana House Republicans.
Lehman 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.
"What sets internships with the House of Representatives apart from others is the pay, networking opportunities with state leaders and exciting environment at the Statehouse during the legislative session," Lehman said. "It's a unique experience that helps build professional skills and a solid foundation for launching a career in a number of fields."
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.
Lehman said 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.
