I invite you to apply as an intern in my office. You would assist with the many different aspects and functions of day to day operations in a congressional office. Interns provide the office with a unique perspective and at the same time, are able to learn about the legislative process and other facets of government.
Intern opportunities exist in both DC and in my Omaha office. I ask that a prospective intern contact my intern coordinator in my district office at:
11717 Burt Street, Ste. 106
Omaha, NE 68154
402.397.9944
To apply, please have ready a cover letter, current resume, and your schedule during your desired timeframe for an internship. An interview is typically set up as part of the application process.
An internship in a congressional office is a great way to see first hand how our government works, earn school credit, and add to your work experience.
I look forward to hearing from you!
Requirements:
We are looking for individuals who are willing to work hard, have fun, participate in staff meetings and issue briefings with the Congressman, assist in providing constituent services, and are willing to be a primary source of assistance for the professional staff members in the office.
Applicants should be college or graduate students. They should possess good communication skills (writing and speaking), be computer literate and flexible. Applicants should be able to make a minimum 4 week commitment and have consistent availability throughout their internships. Most importantly, they should be self-starters who display initiative and creativity.
