Internship Opportunity with NJ Office of Assemblyman Erik Peterson
Posted 10/20/2026
The office of Assemblyman Erik Peterson is recruiting undergraduate and graduate interns and high school volunteers for immediate start and the spring 2027 semester. Assemblyman Erik Peterson represents the Twenty-Third Legislative District of New Jersey, which encompasses parts of Somerset, Warren, and Hunterdon counties. He has served in the legislature since 2009 and was previously a Hunterdon County Freeholder. Assemblyman Peterson sits on the Commerce and Economic Development (ACE) and Health (AHE) Committees.
Their interns and volunteers will have the opportunity to engage directly with the legislative process and play an active role in supporting the district’s constituent services operation. Interns will work closely with staff to research casework inquiries, draft responses, and track ongoing constituent concerns to ensure they receive timely and effective assistance. This hands‑on experience provides students with a deep understanding of how legislative offices serve the public and address real‑world challenges faced by New Jersey residents. Interns and volunteers will also have the opportunity to attend committee hearings, draft memos, and contribute to policy discussions related to economic development and healthcare.
The internship and volunteer opportunities are designed to be flexible and can accommodate academic schedules, with in‑person, hybrid, and remote work options available depending on office needs. That said, preference will be given to applicants who can commute to our district office located at 389 Pittstown Road in Pittstown, New Jersey. They welcome applicants from a wide range of academic backgrounds and are committed to providing a supportive and educational experience focused on public service.
Prospective applicants can apply to the Spring 2027 internship or volunteer opportunity by emailing their resume and cover letter to Asmpeterson@njleg.org.

Associated Press Hiring Vote Entry Operators on Election Night
Posted 10/14/2026
The Associated Press will be hiring hundreds of students from campuses nationwide to work as remote Vote Entry Operators on Election Night. Vote Entry Operators support the AP's live election results by taking reports from our stringers in the field, by inputting results from official election websites, and by entering reports received directly from election officials.
Apart from the obvious commitment to work election night, Nov. 3, contractors are required to attend a virtual orientation, virtual training, and a mock election virtual event. Starting VEOs are compensated at the national flat-rate of $17/hour. VEOs are expected to provide their own reliable computer with a strong internet connection that can handle telephone calls. Integrity, accuracy, and a sense of urgency are involved as the work of the AP's Vote Entry Center is vital to bringing timely and accurate information on election outcomes at the very core of our democracy.
