InternshipsThe office of Senator Lieberman offers internship opportunities year-round for qualified college students. The program is offered in both our state office in Hartford, Connecticut, and in our Washington, D.C. office. See links below and at left. The intent of the program is to offer college students an opportunity to observe and participate in the workings of the United States Senate. Interns rapidly become an integral part of the office and are offered opportunities to assist professional staff in legislative, press, administrative, and constituent service activities. Interns can expect to spend approximately fifty percent of their time handling routine administrative and clerical duties and the other fifty percent of their time on more substantive activities. On the whole, our goal is to offer as rewarding an experience as possible, while fulfilling the existing needs of the office. As a rule, students must commit to work full time during the summer. Fall and Spring applicants must commit to at least two full days per week, with preference given to those who can work as many full days as possible.
