Interns receive biweekly compensation of $750.
(Indianapolis, Ind.) - State Rep. Randy Frye (R-Greensburg) said time is running out for local students to apply for a paid internship with the Indiana House of Representatives in Indianapolis.
Frye said the deadline to apply is Oct. 31 and interviews are already taking place. He said interested college students, recent graduates, graduate students and law school students should not wait to submit their applications as positions are filling quickly.
"Time is running out to apply for the House internship program," Frye said. "Students and recent graduates should consider the many benefits this internship presents, like networking and growing your skills, and apply immediately."
Interns receive biweekly compensation of $750, and can earn academic credit through their college or university. Interns are also eligible for a competitive $3,000 scholarship to use toward undergraduate and graduate expenses.
According to Frye, internships are full-time, Monday through Friday, lasting from January through April 2021. He said positions are available in a variety of areas, including legislative operations, communications and media relations, policy and fiscal policy. Previous political or government experience is not required.
The legislature may make certain changes to the internship program due to the impacts of COVID-19 and social distancing requirements, but any adjustments will be communicated to candidates and intern hires.
Frye said all majors are encouraged to apply before the Oct. 31 deadline at IndianaHouseRepublicans.com/internship.
