Are All Hillternships Created Equal?
Hey everyone!
I am in the midst of applying to DC Hillternships. As I start to think over what offices I would actually want to work in if offered, and as I contemplate if I should take any given offers, I was curious how much it matters or if there is a given prestige with the member I work with. I want to work in Democratic offices and I hope to leverage the internship into a full-time job with a House/Senate member later.
Ex: if I intern with a more junior member vs. a more senior member of the House, will that have any significant consequences in the connections I form or the jobs I could get? Or if I was in a leadership office, would I have a vastly better time getting jobs than if I was in a first or second term House member's office?
Thanks for any advice or tips!
