About the role
Policy Intern
Our government affairs internship provides students and graduates with a variety of learning experiences and an inside look at government relations strategies. We have successfully accommodated students from second-year undergraduate programs to second-year law students and master's degree graduates. We seek to ensure that interns who successfully complete our program are prepared to both succeed in entry-level policy positions as well as gain a deeper academic comprehension of the institutions that govern our country.
Program Focus
Cornerstone's Intern Program emphasizes effective communications, policy analysis, and research and writing skills.
Work Arrangement
While our program is perfect for a candidate who can commit to a full-time work schedule, we also regularly accommodate part-time interns as long as they can commit to working full days. For federal government relations, our internships are fully in-person in our DC office.
Preferred Qualifications
- Demonstrated interest in government and public policy
- Very strong writing and research skills
- Prior relevant internship/work experience, including Capitol Hill offices and campaigns
- Rising undergraduate junior or senior or master's student preferred
