The AAPC Foundation’s Internship Program provides rising seniors and recent college graduates interested in entering the field of politics an opportunity to gain professional work experience with AAPC member firms that are leaders in the fields of political consulting and public affairs.

The 2023 Summer paid internship program can be held virtually or in-person from June 5, 2023 to August 4, 2023.

2023 Summer interns will work full-time only, no more than 40 hours per week.

If you are interested in hosting an intern, please complete the following application by Monday, March 6, 2023.

Once the host firms are selected, the AAPC Foundation will promote the internship opportunities nationally and screen candidates. Host firms will be invited to interview candidates by phone/video conference before placements are finalized. All interns will be placed by Monday, May 15, 2023. Host firms will be required to sign a Host Agreement with the AAPC Foundation prior to placements.

Funding is provided by the AAPC Foundation, a 501(c)(3), non-profit organization, founded in 2006 to support the American system of free elections, protect political free speech and provide educational opportunities to students interested in the field.

Take advantage of this benefit available only to AAPC member firms!  Apply by Monday, March 6, 2023.
