Internships
Congressman Auchincloss is pleased to offer internships in his Newton, Attleboro, and Washington D.C. offices through the Fall, Spring, and Summer semesters. Hours are flexible to accommodate students' hectic schedules, but internships generally run from 9:00am to 5:00pm. Internships are intended for current undergraduate students, recent college graduates, and students currently enrolled in graduate school.
All interns are paid or they can receive academic credit. Interns must be legally eligible to work for the U.S. federal government.
Qualified applicants should have strong oral and written communication skills, the ability to manage multiple tasks at once, a willingness to work in a fast-paced environment, and should be comfortable assisting constituents. Sound knowledge of Microsoft Office, a solid work ethic, and a basic understanding of the Congressional political process is expected.
