STATEHOUSE (Sept. 9, 2022) – State Rep. Craig Snow (R-Warsaw) invites local college students and recent graduates of all majors to apply for a paid internship with Indiana House Republicans.

Snow 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.

"Interns work with elected state officials and House staff to help manage the increased workload during the fast-paced legislative session, which is a great opportunity to learn more about state government and develop new skills," Snow said. "With House internships, college students and recent grads have different responsibilities, from managing constituent inquiries to working with the media. It's a beneficial experience that will serve participants well in any career."

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 Snow, 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.  

Snow said to learn more and apply online before the Oct. 31 deadline, visit indianahouserepublicans.com/internship.
