How good doesn't a political internship look?

<p>On the one hand, it could be construed as a step in doing something you love. On the other, it could also be construed as being a replaceable part and doing something "passive" instead of doing something bigger in a way. I'm torn between the two, so I have a few questions...Who's right? Where does this rank on a 1-10 scale (to see what I mean, see the "top, prestigious awards" thread)? What would be something "bigger" in the political field? Any help at all will be appreciated...</p>

<p>I have no idea what you’re talking about. Pick things that you enjoy and you can get something out of.</p>

<p>like previous poster said, do something you like (or earns you big $$$ :P). Seriously ibankers just end up making pitchbooks all day and its alot of people’s dream jobs (including mine). If you like politics don’t be bummed out about doing a little menial work in the beginning (only if it continues). Don’t worry about the prestige of it. Passion is more important even for admissions</p>

<p>If you admit you don’t have a clue, don’t post.</p>

<p>Im with dwight on this… your first post was rather confusing. THAT SAID if your entire resume revolves around politics and campaigning, it will help. If you want to be pre med or something and are just looking to build up your resume, it won’t help so much.</p>

<p>Yeah I think what dwight meant about not having a clue was the fact that your first post looks like it’s missing an introduction paragraph. Like seriously wth are you talking about use a noun or two and describe what this internship is</p>
