[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]See if you can get an internship where they will call you a fellow and let you work on more substantive material other than opening mail. If you don't go this route make sure you leave off graduation year, etc. that'll give away your age. While some offices will hire a 27 year old staff assistant, it's a bit north of the norm. You're really going to need some type of experience on your resume that says you're interested in politics. That could even be a volunteering on a campaign or with the state democratic party. Even though it's entry level work, you're competing against a couple hundred applicants for every advertised slot. If your desire is to just work on the hill, scheduler may be your easiest route. This can lead to a more legislative position, but often does not.[/quote] Scheduler posts say experience required. Why won’t they hire people over 30 for staff jobs?[/quote]
