Which is the better internship option?

Hey all,

Over the following summer, I have two opportunities for internships. One is with my representative and one is with my Senator. Both are pretty equal in terms of length and workload, but which do you guys think will help out better in the long run?

Not to be too cynical, but here’s what I’d consider:

  1. Political party of each one
  2. Best guess as to how long that person will be in office (if you need a recommendation several years from now, it will carry more weight coming from a currently serving official
  3. Does either one have contacts or is an alum of a uni you’re interested in?
  4. General reputation of the people involved
