STATEHOUSE (Sept. 14, 2022) – State Reps. Shane Lindauer (R-Jasper) and Bruce Borders (R-Jasonville) invite local college students and recent graduates of all majors to apply for a paid internship with Indiana House Republicans.
Lindauer 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.
"Interning is a great way to discover your passion and build your resume," Lindauer said. "Statehouse interns are an integral part of the team and play a big role in ensuring the legislative session runs smoothly."
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.
According to Borders, 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.
"I've had the privilege of working with many interns who've gone on to full-time positions with the Indiana General Assembly, state agencies and so many other places," Borders said. "This program is a great way to build connections with leaders from across Indiana and boost your resume to help you stand out from other jobseekers."
