I had a total of 3 interviews; 2 with the Legislative Assistant and 1 with the Legislative Director. It was pretty straight forward. I was asked basic questions about myself, what I knew about the member and current events or issues surrounding the issue areas in the policy portfolio.
They also asked how I obtain my news, what my research skills were like and if I minded working on weekends.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at U.S. Senate (Washington, DC) in Aug 2021
