What is a campaign internship?

Campaign internships are temporary positions, usually for students or recent graduates, that provide hands-on experience working on political campaigns. Interns assist with various tasks such as voter outreach, event planning, research, communications, and administrative support. These internships are an excellent way to learn about the political process, develop professional skills, and build networks within the field. They are often unpaid or offer a small stipend, but provide valuable exposure to the fast-paced environment of political campaigns.

Familiarity with voter database systems like NGP VAN, social media platforms, and office productivity tools is typically required. Excellent communication, teamwork, and adaptability are standout soft skills for collaborating with diverse stakeholders and handling fast-paced environments. These skills and qualities are crucial for effectively supporting campaign operations, engaging voters, and contributing to the overall success of the campaign.

What are some common challenges faced by campaign interns, and how can they be addressed?

Campaign interns often face fast-paced environments with shifting priorities, which can be challenging for those new to political or advocacy work. Balancing multiple tasks such as voter outreach, event planning, and data entry requires strong organizational skills and adaptability. Effective communication with team members and supervisors helps interns stay on track and manage expectations. Proactively seeking feedback and clarification can also make adjusting to the dynamic nature of campaigns much smoother.

Job description

Environment Virginia Campaign Associate
Department: State
Employment Type: Full Time
Location: Richmond, VA
Reporting To: Elly Boehmer-Wilson
Compensation: $40,000 / year
Description
Environment Virginia is hiring an entry-level campaign associate to help lead our campaigns to expand state parks, create new wildlife corridors, and reduce plastic pollution.
We want more protected parks and forests, and clean water flowing in our rivers and streams. We want more wildlife in our world, from the whales off our coast to the bees in our garden, from the black bears in the mountains to the fish in the Chesapeake Bay.
Key Responsibilities
Our Conservation and Wildlife Campaign Associate will work to help advance solutions in Virginia that protect special places and reduce pollution. This position requires excellent judgment, discretion and the ability to oversee significant projects.
  • Build powerful coalitions: Reach out to a broad range of organizations and affected constituency groups across the political spectrum to demonstrate support for our campaign goals.
  • Earn traditional media and social media attention: Organize news conferences and write opinion pieces. Build a following on social media for your campaign.
  • Organize events and work with volunteers: Organize webinars, community events and public meetings. Recruit organizations and members of the public to attend and participate.
  • Lobby elected officials: Meet with decision makers - from city council members to state legislators - to make the case for our campaign goals. When a critical vote is happening on your campaign, work to demonstrate the support you've been building on the ground to help line up the votes needed to win.
  • Research and write reports: Catalog and analyze data relevant to the issue and our policy proposals to help influence public debate and earn media attention for our cause.
  • Recruit new people to your team: Help build your team by recruiting volunteers, interns and full-time staff.
  • Run a grassroots campaign office each summer: Run a campaign office for the summer, knocking on doors to raise money to support our campaigns, build our organization and membership, and help build critical and timely grassroots support to win key campaigns. Your responsibilities will include meeting your own fundraising goals and managing a team of paid staff. You may be assigned to a different office location for the summer and should be flexible to move.

Qualifications
Entry-level candidates are encouraged to apply. Though we expect you to take your campaign and run with it, we provide training on advocacy and organizing skills, as well as oversight by an experienced advocate. Candidates must live in or be willing to relocate to Virginia.
Ideal candidates will have:
  • Passion for the environment and using the power of grassroots organizing to win campaigns
  • Leadership experience
  • Top-notch writing and public speaking skills
  • Good listening skills
  • An eagerness to learn
  • Organizing experience, including building campus or community groups

Details
Compensation and Benefits
The target annual compensation for this entry-level position is $40,000 in the first year. Environment Virginia offers a competitive benefits package. Our benefits package includes medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and dependents, time off, a commuter benefit program, a 401(k) plan with employer match, parental leave, long term disability insurance, and may include needs-based student loan assistance. We also offer an excellent training program and opportunities for advancement.
