Are there any internship programs for state or federal government roles? I'm studying political science.

Indiana has a paid internship program that most of the agency’s and branches participate in.

Yes! Many government agencies seek out interns, and it is a great opportunity to get insight to many different roles. Check with your college boards and surf you local municipal websites under job postings.

Check out the Government Accountability Office. It's a federal agency that conducted reviews and audits of federal programs to support Congress in their oversight responsibilities. They have paid internships which, if all goes well, can be turned into a full time employment offer when you graduate. It's an excellent place to work, good work life balance, lots of opportunities for remote or in person work, the work is interesting and challenging, and you get to work with some great people. I found it through an internship when in grad school, and although I never planned to go into public service, it's now my career and I'm genuinely happy with it.

I believe DOS has opened their internship applications.

My friends think I’m crazy because I’m willing to work all the time / give 110%, but they don’t understand that I need to do well so I can better provide for my family. I’m already making more in a week at 22 years old than my mom makes in a month, and she works way harder than I do. Just wanted to get this off my chest ha. I’m not resentful and I definitely understand the need for self care…but I’m willing to suffer in a high-paying job if it means I can provide for my family. Is this just me?🙂

This week, I received a letter in the mail from a Catholic church in SC. So apparently my ex is trying to get our marriage annulled. We have been divorced for 20 years now. The letter said they wanted to ask me general questions about our marriage. I really don't want to talk to anybody about my past relationship with my ex. The letter said they could issue a subpoena to make me comply. Not sure why she is doing this? She remarried and had a child. So not sure what she has to gain by this? Cont.
