Baird: Application deadline approaching for paid Statehouse internship

State Rep. Beau Baird (R-Greencastle) encourages college students and recent graduates to apply for a paid Statehouse internship before the Oct. 31 deadline.

 

Baird said college sophomores, juniors and seniors, as well as recent graduates and graduate students of all majors can apply for an internship with the Indiana House of Representatives. House interns will be paid $800 bi-weekly while working at the Indiana Statehouse in downtown Indianapolis during the 2023 legislative session, starting in January and concluding at the end of April.

 

"Every year, students and recent graduates from all sorts of backgrounds work together to help ensure a successful legislative process," Baird said. "It's a learning experience that looks good on any resume, and I hope to see some local faces at the Statehouse when session starts in January."

 

Interested Hoosiers should visit indianahouserepublicans.com/internship and complete the application before Oct. 31. According to Baird, intern interviews are currently taking place to fill positions in legislative operations, policy, and communications and media relations departments.

 

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.
