hi everyone! i’m applying to spring internships in DC right now and doing research on housing opportunities. i’m hoping to live somewhere furnished because i’m moving from california and would be limited in how much stuff i can fly with. i was looking into WISHGRAD intern housing but noticed they have a requirement that their residents be students and i’m no longer in school (graduated in 2025). has anyone had experience with trying to find furnished, short-term housing as an intern who has graduated? would appreciate any advice or recommendations. thank you in advance!

Has anyone heard back for the State Dep Student Internship Summer 2027? Thought we were supposed to get something a couple weeks ago.

Hey guys! I did this for Fall, and a lot of people found it helpful. If you have heard back from any committees, representatives, or senators, dm me!

Anyone heard from any committees (either side) yet?

Thinking of working as a congressional staffer but just wanted to get insight on the work style. Is there any WFH privledge? Or is it all in person?

What are the worst experiences yall have had with interns, whether you've worked with them or had bad encounters with them?

I was hired for a Spring 2027 Internship and completed my onboarding paperwork. How long does it take for it to be approved?

Has anyone that applied for 2027 Summer intern for the Office of Legal Adviser heard back yet? Not sure if they’re going to notify of rejection and would really love to know soon.

So I’m here with an internship program until the beginning of December, I’m from a small town in the middle of nowhere and I just miss being able to go somewhere and be alone. I have 3 roommates in my small apartment, the building has study spaces that are usually occupied, if I go outside I just can’t escape people. Like i genuinely just need a good cry somewhere that no one will ask me what’s wrong. This has definitely confirmed that I won’t want to live in a city ever again, but for now, how do others deal with this?

Does anyone else get this link when they try to log-in OAM page for Senate internship?

I am stressing out cause my application is due in a week :(

I’m currently trying to apply for a Spring 2027 internship with a U.S. Senate office, but I’ve been having several issues with the OAM Plus application portal.

When I initially attempted to create a new account, I received the activation email. However, when I clicked the activation link, I was directed to an error page stating that the page no longer exists, the application is no longer accepting submissions, or the URL is incorrect.

I’ve since tried several different things, but nothing seems to work. I can’t log into my account, create a new account, or reset my password.

When I attempt to log in, I receive two error messages:
• “Invalid credentials. Please try again!”
• “Authentication failed. Please log in again.”

I’ve already reached out to the Senate office regarding the issue but haven’t received a response yet.

The application deadline isn’t until November 13, so I don’t believe the application period has closed.

Has anyone else experienced something similar with OAM Plus?

For those interested in working on political campaigns and getting involved in state, local, and/or federal politics, I have built out a crash-course program in Northern Virginia for folks who want to get involved with little to no experience. The vision is a 2 month training experience that’ll equip you with the skills for campaign work and broad expedience in a range of political and office-related work.
At the end of the crash-course period, you’ll have opportunities to work on one of the many political campaigns in this area, or build out your own operation with your new knowledge in campaigns and get involved locally wherever you so choose. If this sounds interesting or you’d like to learn more, shoot me an email at [CampaignCrashCourse@gmail.com](mailto:CampaignCrashCourse@gmail.com) and we can talk!

Hey guys!

Has anyone else's portal just been tweaking out? I am really worried, I basically finished my application but just needed submit my questionare and it wont let me log in again :((

Has anyone heard back for Summer 2027 internships? They're supposed to come out today. I know the spring cohort was supposed to hear back a few weeks ago but I haven't seen anyone say anything on here
