<Title>Campaign Internships in Baltimore County</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Baltimore County, MD is more populous than four states and the District of Columbia. With over 700,000 residents as of the last census, it's larger than any Congressional District. A top tier countywide campaign is now accepting resumes for Spring and Summer internships. Ideal candidates are high-energy, excellent oral communicators, good listeners and have access to
    their own transportation.
    
    Spring Interns (volunteer) can expect to receive a comprehensive education in all substantive areas of campaign work: Field, Fundraising, Communications and Advance and their relationship to one another in building a campaign organization.
    
    Summer internships, in addition to these rotations, also include a Specialized Field internship. 10 weeks of intensive organizing and training. Interns can expect to finish this program with enough experience to work as a field organizer in any Congressional race in the United States.
    
    Please direct all resumes and cover letters to <a href="mailto:jonnyakchin@gmail.com" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">jonnyakchin@gmail.com</a> with
    SPRING INTERNSHIP and SUMMER INTERNSHIP in the subject lines.</div>
