COLUMBUS — State Representative Craig Riedel (R-Defiance) announced that the Ohio Legislative Service Commission is accepting applications for its 13-month Legislative and Telecommunications Fellowship Program. The commission will hire 24 fellows to work with members of the Ohio General Assembly during 2018.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe LSC Fellowship is a great opportunity for those who aspire to get involved in state government,\u201d said Rep. Riedel. \u201cThis program offers someone the ability to learn firsthand how the General Assembly works.\u201d<\/p>\n

Legislative fellow duties include assisting members of the Ohio General Assembly with constituent work, writing press releases and speeches, assisting in legislative research, attending meetings, and performing administrative duties.<\/p>\n

Telecommunications fellows assist in televising Ohio House and Senate proceedings and preparing educational video productions about the General Assembly and legislative process.<\/p>\n

Fellows receive full state employee benefits and are paid $31,200 annually, with the opportunity to earn a $2,000 bonus based on length of service in the program.<\/p>\n

Legislative fellowship applications must be postmarked by April 1 to be considered for the program. The application deadline for the two telecommunications positions is April 30. All applicants must have graduated from a four-year college degree program by the December start date. Persons holding graduate or professional degrees may also apply.<\/p>\n

The legislative fellowship program is open to graduates of all major fields of study who have a genuine interest in learning about state government, and no political experience is required. The two telecommunications fellows must have majored or minored in a telecommunications-related field of study or have comparable experience.<\/p>\n
