STATEHOUSE (Oct. 22, 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. Dave Hall (R-Norman) 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.
"Interning at the Statehouse is not only educational, but it also helps students stand out in today's competitive job market," Hall said. "It's a great way to explore career options and make lasting professional connections."
State Rep. Bob Heaton (R-Terre Haute) 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.
"Our internship program allows students to actively participate in the legislative process and offers valuable experience that can lead to exciting career opportunities," Heaton said. "I encourage students and recent graduates to apply before the deadline."
State Rep. Peggy Mayfield (R-Martinsville) 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.
"Interns gain a better understanding of how our state government works while building a strong professional network," Mayfield said. "It's a fantastic steppingstone for anyone looking to launch their career."
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.
