U.S. Senator Kirsten E. Gillibrand seeks current students and recent graduates (undergraduate, graduate, or law students) for Fall 2012 internships in her New York City office. Positions are available in multiple departments including Constituent Affairs, Community Outreach, Operations and Press. Each role provides a unique opportunity to gain insight into the federal government’s interaction with constituents, local government officials, businesses, and community organizations. Intern tasks include assisting U.S. Senate staff with casework in immigration, healthcare, veteran’s affairs, banking/housing, and consumer protection.
Additionally, they may also assist in researching news and policy issues of concern to New Yorkers and preparing the Senator’s announcements and press events.
Positions are open throughout the year for students and recent graduates. Current students may apply for course credit and assume part-time schedules during the academic year. For the Fall 2012 term, applicants will be admitted on a rolling basis beginning August 1, 2012.
Recent graduates typically start in mid to late August. Current students begin in September. The application can be found attached or on Senator Gillibrand's website at http://gillibrand.senate.gov/services/internships/. Applicants should direct all inquiries and send applications to Gillibrand_InternshipsNYC@gillibrand.senate.gov.
