PAID CONGRESSIONAL INTERNSHIP, DC, FOR JANUARY!

I felt like I needed to write that all in caps, it's such a great opportunity. From PG alum Catherine Fish:

PAID STUDENT INTERNSHIP IN OFFICE OF REP. SMITH
JANUARY-APRIL
WASHINGTON, D.C.

The Office of Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA-09) is seeking to hire a paid full time student intern for Winter 2010 in the Washington, D.C. office. Candidates should have an interest in the legislative process, possess excellent writing and communication skills, and have an understanding of the American political system. Pacific Northwest ties a plus!

Legislative interns will be responsible for projects such as writing correspondence, providing support for daily legislative tasks, fielding constituent phone calls and other requests. Other duties include leading Capitol building tours and providing staff with general office support. During their term, interns will also have the opportunity to attend briefings and committee hearings of personal interest and complete individual and team goals.

The Winter Internship begins in January 2010. We also welcome applications for the Summer 2010 internship, starting in May. If you would like to be considered for an internship, please send your resume and cover letter to Catherine.fish@mail.house.gov
