State
Senator Bill Beagle
Paid
Statehouse Fellowship Opportunities
Available
COLUMBUS–
State Senator Bill Beagle (R–Tipp
City) today announced that the Ohio Legislative Service Commission is
accepting
applications for its 13-month Legislative and Telecommunications
Fellowship
Program. The Commission will hire 20-plus fellows to work with members
of the
Ohio General Assembly during the 2014 calendar year.
“The
Legislative Service Commission fellowship
is an excellent way for individuals to learn more about state
government and
participate in the process,” Beagle said. “This is a unique opportunity
to
learn and grow as a professional while learning about politics and
policy and
making a positive impact in the State of Ohio.
Legislative
fellows work closely with members
of both the Ohio House and Senate, assisting them with legislative
research,
administrative tasks, constituent correspondence and writing press
releases and
speeches. Telecommunications fellows assist in televising House and
Senate
sessions and events and in preparing educational video productions
about the
General Assembly and the legislative process.
The
fellowships are full-time, paid positions.
Fellows are paid $26,750 - $28,750 annually and are eligible for
benefits
applicable to other state employees.
Legislative
fellowship application materials
must be postmarked by April 1, 2013 to be considered for the program.
The
application deadline for the two telecommunications positions is May
31, 2013.
All applicants must have graduated from a four-year college degree
program by
the December 2013 start date. Persons
holding graduate or professional degrees are also encouraged to apply.
The
legislative fellowship program is open to graduates of all major fields
of study
who have a genuine interest in learning about state government. No
prior
political experience is required. The two telecommunications fellows
must have
majored or minored in a telecommunications-related field of study or
have
comparable experience.
