An internship in a Congressional office provides an exciting educational experience.
Congressional offices are small and the staff is busy with constantly changing issues.
An intern provides basic assistance to the staff by opening and directing mail, answering and directing telephone inquiries and running errands. Interns are also encouraged to participate in the legislative process, to do research, and to assist with constituent service. Work assignments are limited only by the intern's energy and willingness to devote time to learning. To apply for an internship, applicants must submit a letter of interest outlining why they wish to be an intern, the dates and days they are available to work, a 1-2 page writing sample, a resume listing references, when they would be available for an interview, and home and school addresses and phone numbers to my office . Please indicate when you would be available in Washington or Stockton for an interview.
