Krieg DeVault LLP will hire
two interns for the 2015 Legislative Session.
The internship is full-time beginning in early January. The 2015 Legislative Session is a long
session, which by statute must end no later than April 29, 2015. The end date of the internship is somewhat
flexible; however, we usually retain our interns at least one week after the
last day of session. Interns will spend
the majority of their time at the Indiana State House; on days when the General
Assembly does not convene, the interns are expected to work in our Indianapolis
office. The salary is to be determined and will be based on the prior
experience, if any, of the prospective intern(s). Most colleges and universities grant credit
for this internship, but the allocation of that credit is at the discretion of
the school. We welcome all majors to
apply. Please call our contact person
