I applied online. I interviewed at U.S. Senate (Washington, DC)
Interview
1 interview. Discussion focused on why I wanted to work in a Senate office, experience dealing with combative people, and how I would respond to a question I didn’t know the answer to.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at U.S. Senate (Washington, DC) in Aug 2025
Interview
Application included two written statements, resume, three recommendations, and a cover letter. I had one phone screening interview with operations staff. A few emails and received an offer letter 2-3 weeks after screening.
Standard questions. Why are you interested, what is your experience and education, why work for this committee. Just one staffer who was only a few years older than me, so it felt pretty relaxed.
