-
FORT WAYNE – Congressman Jim Banks (IN-03) currently has full-time and part-time internship opportunities this fall in his Fort Wayne district office that are available to qualified college students or recent college graduates.
These unpaid internships are designed to give students an inside view of how a Congressional district office functions on a day-to-day basis. This is a great opportunity for students seeking a deeper understanding of the various branches of government and how they interact, according to a news release.
Intern positions allow students to work with congressional staff and support daily office functions. Interns interact with constituents, answer phones, and perform administrative work such as filing, emailing, researching federal regulations and legislation and word processing. All work is performed in an office environment and requires interaction with staff members and the public.
While priority is given to residents of Indiana’s 3rd Congressional District, all candidates that submit complete applications will be considered. Candidates must be highly motivated, possess excellent communication skills, a strong work ethic, a positive attitude, and the desire to learn about the legislative branch.
Students interested in an internship should send a resume, writing sample and cover letter to John Scaer, IN03.Internships@mail.house.gov.
