About the role
Internship Overview Time Commitment: Internships are part-time, requiring a minimum commitment of hours per week. We generally prefer that part-time interns commit to work full workdays (i.e., three eight-hour days rather than four six-hour days). but schedules can be flexible. Internships are offered on an in-person basis only.
This generally requires students to have access to a computer and reliable internet. Texas Democratic Party Leaders are officed in Dallas and Austin and depending on the internship, interns would be expected to work out of one of those offices to receive the highest quality experience. Duration: All internships are for 10 weeks, 24 hours per week.
