[jobsthatareLEFT by GAIN] Internship with Stephen Daniel for Congress (Dallas)


 Internship with Stephen Daniel for Congress (Dallas)

 

Stephen Daniel for Congress is looking for interns to assist the campaign beginning May 18th and ending August 15th. This is an excellent educational opportunity for those interested in learning more about politics and the inner workings of political campaigns. The campaign is based in the Dallas/Fort Worth area but remote positions are available to especially outstanding applicants who have a strong streak of working independently.

 

The 6th Congressional District in Texas comprises most of Arlington and suburbs south of Dallas. It is one of the top targets in the state to flip this cycle. Our interns will be a vital part of the team as we head into a historic election year poised to break records. They will have the opportunity to learn a variety of skills directly from campaign professionals and participate in a professional development program. Previous experience preferred, but not required. Ideal applicants should have a background in political science or data science, and a commitment to electing Democrats in Texas.

 

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until June 1st.

·         Interns will receive assistance securing college credit if enrolled in a 2-year or 4-year college

·         A flexible work schedule of 10-20 hours a week

·         Extensive networking and leadership development opportunities

·         Training in skills applicable for an entry-level role in politics and many other office environments

 

Responsibilities include but are not limited to:
