The Office of Rep. Rick Larsen (D‑WA‑02)
is seeking to hire an intern in the Washington, DC office for the
spring. Candidates should have
an interest in and knowledge of the legislative process and American
political system, possess excellent communication and writing skills,
and be able to work independently.
Interns play an important role in the
congressional office, and perform tasks that make the legislative
process work. They will be responsible for projects such as researching
and writing memos, assisting legislative staff in
committee hearings, and fielding constituent phone calls and other
requests. Other duties include leading Capitol tours and providing
staff with general office support. During their term, interns are
encouraged to attend briefings and committee hearings of
personal interest.
Those with ties to Washington State or
the 2nd Congressional District are strongly encouraged to apply. While
the internship is unpaid, we are happy to work with schools that offer
students academic credit for the internship.
If you would like to be considered for
an internship, please email your resume, cover letter, and two
references to Cara Sullivan at
cara.sullivan@mail.house.gov.
