Depends on the office

I interned in Congress for several months. It is a cool experience especially at first, but the work can definitely be frustrating. As an intern you mostly get a lot of boring grunt work. Some offices are very helpful if you are looking to learn and advance while others are terrible.

Engaging and exciting work environment. Plenty of opportunities to learn and grow. Professional and understanding staff leadership.

All three of my internships with the Legislative Branch allowed me to see great bouts of personal growth while obtaining my degree in Communications. These positions helped strengthened my background in researching, drafting, editing, and gathering support for various legislative issues and bills. My favorite aspect of all three of my internships so far has been any task that involved working directly with constituents and being able to talk with the people. This includes answering phone calls, reporting concerns, giving tours of the Capitol, attending events, and conducting surveys. The most difficult part was simply getting adjusted to all of the regulations and personally working through any nervousness surrounding executing them properly. Management was always incredible and I've been able to remain in contact with all of the staff leaders I worked with.
