Internships

Internships provide an outstanding opportunity for students who are passionate about public service and interested in pursuing a career in politics or government. Our office offers internships in both Washington, D.C. and North Carolina’s 7th Congressional District, allowing students to gain firsthand experience in the legislative process and constituent services. Intern responsibilities vary depending on location, but typically include welcoming constituents, assisting with meetings, conducting Capitol tours, answering phone calls, supporting legislative research, drafting constituent correspondence, and maintaining front office operations. Interns also perform general administrative tasks that help keep the office running smoothly. The ideal candidate is highly organized, capable of multitasking, and thrives in a collaborative team environment. Interns serving in the district office will gain valuable insight into how congressional representatives assist citizens with federal issues. They will be exposed to casework inquiries, policy discussions, and current events from Washington, D.C., helping them develop a deeper understanding of the role Congress plays in everyday lives. The application process for Spring 2026 is now open, and we are currently accepting submissions. All applications must be received by November 1, 2025. Interested candidates should complete the internship application below and indicate their preferred office location.
