Professor O’Neil,
I hope you are having a wonderful summer! Our office is currently hiring for the Fall 2011 internship session in Washington, D.C. (August to December 2011).
We would love to have our Paid Intern hired by mid-July, so if you know any interested students, please send them my way!
As background:
Interns in the Washington, D.C. office will have an opportunity to learn about the legislative process and the federal government by working closely with the legislative, communications and constituent services staff members. We have openings for 4 interns, 3 part time unpaid and 1 full time paid. Furthermore, interns in any office can arrange to receive academic credit for their work.
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 are 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.
Please forward this email to any potential students, post on the P&G Blog, and feel free to give them my contact information if they have any questions!
Cheers,
Becca
