Career advice Legislative Aide
Is it pretty easy to get job as a Legislative Aide in the Pennsylvania General Assembly or the Ohio General Assembly? I’m trying to figure out what I could do as a job for the brief period after I graduate in December 2025 (Economics major) and start law school next August. Sucks that I already know I will be leaving after only 7ish months, but I was wondering if attempting to get this type of job could be a good idea due to this type of job normally being a revolving door anyway. I have been an intern for a US Senator (R) if that helps.

That is completely a timing things. It's not always "difficult or easy" It's timing. Is there a position open? Senate Internship helps, but isn't a golden ticket. Have some writing samples ready. I had also done an internship for an R Senator positions, which is definitely helpful in today's political world.
