STATEHOUSE (Oct. 26, 2023) – State Reps. Craig Snow (R-Warsaw) and Lorissa Sweet (R-Wabash) encourage local college students and recent graduates to apply online for an internship at the Indiana Statehouse before the Oct. 31 deadline.
"Each day there is something new and exciting happening at the Statehouse, and interns have a unique opportunity to be part of the legislative process," Snow said. "I hope to see college students and graduates from our community get involved with the internship program during the upcoming session."
The House of Representatives offers paid spring internships to college sophomores, juniors, seniors, graduate students and recent graduates of all majors. Interns will receive $900 biweekly while working at the Indiana Statehouse in downtown Indianapolis during the 2024 legislative session, which begins in January and concludes mid-March.
Sweet said interested Hoosiers should visit indianahouserepublicans.com/internship and complete the application before Oct. 31.
"Now is the time to submit your application to join our team as an intern and not miss out on a unique experience," Sweet said. "We welcome interns with diverse backgrounds and majors, and I look forward to working with young professionals who are eager to learn and grow."
Positions are available in legislative operations where interns work directly with constituents and help track committee activity. The communications department is looking for interns to help write press releases and email newsletters, and work with social media, graphic design and audio/video production. The policy department is also in need of interns to help research, track and analyze legislation.
Internships 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.
