Summer Internships Available in State Rep. White's Offices

announced last week that internships are available in his constituent services offices—and that local high school and college students whose studies require an internship are encouraged to apply.

White D-Cecil, said the for-credit positions are based on each academic quarter—fall, winter, spring and summer—and are available in his Cecil, Canton and Burgettstown offices.

Job duties would include research, assisting at events, attending briefings and performing basic administrative tasks.

"I am looking for students with an enthusiasm to learn more about Pennsylvania's legislative process and who want an upfront look at how sate government works, both in the Capitol and in the local offices," White said. "Students should expect to become familiar with the legislative and budgetary priorities facing Pennsylvania, which will lend interns valuable experience to use as they further their careers."

He said all interns are required to have completed at least their junior year of high school, or be enrolled in a higher-learning institution. Successful applicants must have a driver's license or reliable transportation and be able to work approximately eight to 15 hours a week on a fixed schedule.

Those interested should send a resume and cover letter to:
