- Will have 100-150 hours by the time I apply (possibly more)
- Candidate I intern for has held a Congressional position before; the campaign I specifically am interning for is one where he is running for a local, municipal position
- Candidate is affiliated with a political party
- I've learned a lot of valuable skills and gained experience through this internship, so it is something I would like to mention
While I would like to discuss the merits of the internship itself, I would like to avoid political animosity/my interviewer or app reviewer forming preconceived notions about me based on the affiliation of the candidate I intern for.
Does anyone have any recommendations for how to proceed? One of my research mentors suggested I not include the candidate's name and only the campaign I interned for; any thoughts on that as well?
