STATEHOUSE (Aug. 31, 2023) – State Rep. Lindsay Patterson (R-Brookville) is seeking interns to join her at the Statehouse during the 2024 legislative session.
She said House interns will be paid $900 bi-weekly as they work in downtown Indianapolis during session, which starts in January and concludes mid-March.
"Students will have an opportunity to showcase their talents, build on their skills and develop valuable connections," Patterson said. "Interning at the Statehouse is a great way to grow your professional network, which could lead to a full-time job."
Patterson said internships are open to college students and recent graduates of all majors. The 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.
Patterson 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.
