State Representative Kate Hogan (Third Middlesex) is looking for new interns. Rep. Hogan is a freshman legislator from Stow, Ma. Her office is run by a lively young staff who will expect talented and motivated interns. Because the office is small you will have the opportunity to work directly with constituents and legislation, and the internship is tailored to fit the intern’s interests and strengths. The position is very flexible and can be as little as 1 day per week or closer to full time. The staff will work with your college to help you receive credit for your time. The position is unpaid but a great resume booster and perfect if you are looking for direct political experience.

Any interested students can send a cover letter and resume to Rep. Hogan’s legislative aide Margot Isman at Margot.Isman@state.ma.us. Or for more information please feel free to email Carolyn Gray at carolyn.l.gray@gmail.com.
