In the District office, internships run throughout the fall, spring, or summer semesters for college students. Work hours generally run from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. During the academic years, hours can be modified to accommodate students’ course schedules. The District Interns may be asked to do a variety of things, including day-to-day office work such as answering phones, writing letters, and assisting with media clips. In addition, interns may be assigned to assist in various constituent casework or work on District-based projects of importance.
Applicants must be undergraduate students who have completed at least one-quarter of college. Our interns are paid $15 an hour.
The application period for the Fall 2025 internship is now open and will close on Friday, August 22nd at 5pm PT.
Interested applicants should e-mail a resume, cover letter, short writing sample, three references, and availability to seattle.internship@mail.house.gov with the subject “First Name.Last Name Internship Application.”
