Internships


Congressional Research Service report: Internships, Fellowships, and Other Work Experience Opportunities in the Federal Government

 

I provide internships in all of my Senate offices for students who are selected from all parts of Arizona. The program offers young Arizonans the opportunity to learn more about the federal government and the legislative process.

Interns are expected to perform a wide variety of duties including: answering constituent phone calls, handling mail, performing legislative research, attending hearings, conducting Capitol tours, drafting memos and response letters, and assisting the staff on special projects. We welcome applicants who are motivated, devoted to public issues, dedicated to their school work and self starters. The internship program is designed to provide the knowledge, skills, and tools that will assist an intern in all future professional endeavors.
