Cornerstone Government Affairs' (Cornerstone) Policy Intern Program provides a unique opportunity for selected candidates to gain first-hand experience and exposure to the fast-paced work environment surrounding the government relations and consulting environment in Washington, D.C.
Our government affairs internship provides students and graduates with a variety of learning experiences and an inside look at government relations strategies. We have successfully accommodated students from second-year undergraduate programs to second-year law students and master’s degree graduates. We seek to ensure that interns who successfully complete our program are prepared to both succeed in entry-level policy positions as well as gain a deeper academic comprehension of the institutions that govern our country. Cornerstone’s Intern Program emphasizes effective communications, policy analysis, and research and writing skills.
Selected candidates will be a part of a fun, dynamic and evolving team at Cornerstone. The right candidate should be passionate about research, writing and able to work within tight deadlines.
While preference is given to candidates who can commit to a full-time work schedule, we also regularly accommodate part-time interns. Cornerstone pays interns $17.50 per hour on a biweekly basis, subject to required taxes. We also work with students who would like to receive credit hours.
