Want to Be the Best Summer Intern Ever? Roll Call Tells You How
To the Interns:
Welcome to Capitol Hill. Now here’s how to hit the ground running.
For many of you, this may be your first professional experience, and it’s likely a combination of hard work, enthusiasm and resilience has helped you land in one of the greatest places — ever — to hold an internship. Hill Navigator has personally worked with some outstanding Capitol Hill interns. Yes, there was the occasional knucklehead, but more often than not, these are young people getting a valuable professional experience in the high-energy setting of a congressional office. Some are even doing so at their own expense — as many internships on Capitol Hill are still unpaid .
So rather than dedicating a column to lambasting the interns for getting lost in Rayburn or wearing their ID badges at Nationals Park, we want to help. That’s why we put together
Best Intern Ever: Roll Call’s Guide to Acing Your Internship
, a free e-book. We’ve collected information about the best ways to succeed while interning, and how to turn that internship into a full-time paid position on Capitol Hill or in Washington, D.C.
Download the e-book or read it online. Then make sure to stand on the right when riding Metro escalators, and you’ll be all set.
Good luck!
“Best Intern Ever, Roll Call’s Guide to Acing Your Internship,” includes the best of Hill Navigator with input from our friends at the Congressional Management Foundation. This free e-book is available for download and can be viewed as a PDF.
