Constituent Services
"We are looking for
talented men and women who are interested in government and
public service. Our interns get an up-close look at the way
the federal government operates. It's a great experience, and
I'm glad we can offer it to deserving students."
Internship OpportunitiesSenator Kent Conrad is looking for students or professionals to intern in his Washington D.C. and state (Bismarck, Fargo, Grand Forks, and Minot) offices. Individuals interested in public affairs, political science and constituent service are encouraged to apply. A successful candidate will work on legislative research projects, aid in constituent questions or concerns, and assist the Senator's staff with various office tasks. In addition to real world experience, successful candidates will receive a stipend. While full-time applicants are preferred, Senator Conrad is willing to make considerations for student schedules. Each year Senator Conrad selects North Dakotans who demonstrate excellence in academics, community service and leadership to work in his State and Capitol Hill offices. The Senator's Public Service Internship Program gives individuals the opportunity to learn about government while serving North Dakota. If you have any questions about the Senator's Public Service Internship Program, please feel free to contact Senator Conrad's Intern Managers, Jolene Garty at 701-232-8030 or Susan King at 202-224-2043.

I had a wonderful time during my internship in Washington D.C. It was a great way to observe the nation's government in action, and be part of the political process. I learned a tremendous amount about the United States Congress and the legislative process. The people that I met, and the educational opportunities that I had during my time in Senator Conrad's office made this an experience that I will never forget. I would recommend this internship to any North Dakotan interested in government and the political process. It was truly a privilege to intern for Senator Conrad.
I greatly enjoyed interning for Senator Conrad in his Fargo office. I have always been interested in politics and this internship was an amazing opportunity to further my knowledge of the political process. It was an honor to intern for Senator Conrad and serve the constituents of North Dakota.
