Due to the part-time nature of the Virginia Senate, internships are only available during the annual legislative session, which typically spans from January to February or March. All candidates must be able to work in-person at the General Assembly Building in Richmond for a minimum of 10 hours per week. Regrettably, internships are not offered virtually or outside of this period.
Applications are open to all interested individuals. However, constituents of Senator Salim or those with relationships to the district will receive priority consideration.
Interns will support various office functions, including email management, policy research, and administrative tasks. While prior office experience is not mandatory, interns are expected to maintain a professional demeanor in the workplace.
All interested applicants should email the Senator’s official office (SenatorSalim@senate.virginia.gov) their resume and a brief cover letter no earlier than November 15th and no later than December 15th to be considered for the next year’s legislative session. Any potential applicants are also welcome to reach out the previous email with any additional questions.
