Intern / Volunteer
The pay might not be the best—in fact, it might be non-existent—but volunteering for a campaign or an issues-oriented non-profit organization can be a great political career starter. If you’re a college student considering politics as a career, volunteer and intern as often as you can.
You’ll probably start out working on the ground and in the office doing the grunt work, but you’ll gain invaluable experience and a good picture of your possible career options. Again, many positions are unpaid, but you may get a small salary or stipend to cover expenses.
Salary: According to Indeed.com, the average pay for a political intern is $13.26 per hour.
实习生/志愿者
薪水可能不是最好的——事实上,它可能根本不存在——但为竞选活动或以问题为导向的非营利组织志愿服务可以成为一个伟大的政治生涯开端。 如果您是一名将政治视为职业的大学生,请尽可能多地做志愿者和实习生。
您可能会开始在地面工作和在办公室做繁重的工作,但您将获得宝贵的经验,并对您可能的职业选择有一个很好的了解。 同样,许多职位是无薪的,但您可能会获得少量薪水或津贴以支付费用。
薪水:根据 Indeed.com 的数据,政治实习生的平均工资为每小时 13.26 美元。
