I found out about this internship through the school career fair, and some of my friends have interned here before. After about two weeks, they contacted me for a one-on-one interview. I met with the HR person, and the interview lasted around 20 minutes. It was quite straightforward, but I put in a lot of preparation.

The interview was really easy. I had one interview with HR and heard back in a few days. I was placed in the department I wanted. It was a painless process, I totally recommend it. Make sure to do your research and be ready to talk about other employers that might make you seem biased. Since it's a political job, some affiliations could cause bias. It was a really good experience overall.
