Internships

My office is always accepting resumes from college students interested in interning for academic credit. We accept students or recent graduates as interns during both the summer and the school year. 

All internships are unpaid and candidates who are chosen for the Washington, D.C. office will be responsible for paying their travel and living expenses. However, interns in any office can arrange to receive academic credit for their work. 

My internship program is open to all area college students, regardless of major.
