Step Into the Heart of a Real Campaign

Gain hands-on experience while helping shape California’s future

Get Real Campaign Experience That Matters

A student internship with Ted Nordblum is not a coffee-run position. You’ll be immersed in the day-to-day work of a professional campaign, seeing firsthand how strategy, communication, and community outreach come together to make a difference. From helping plan neighborhood events to supporting voter contact efforts, you’ll gain a clear understanding of how campaigns are organized and how decisions are made behind the scenes.

Interns may assist with volunteer coordination, digital outreach, policy research, and data tracking. You’ll see how messages are crafted, how community concerns are translated into priorities, and how every phone call, text, and conversation contributes to the bigger picture. It’s the kind of hands-on campaign experience that brings your civics classes to life and stands out on college and scholarship applications.

Develop Valuable Skills You Can Use Anywhere

Whether you’re interested in public service, business, communications, or another field entirely, the skills you build as an intern will stay with you long after Election Day. You’ll practice professional communication as you speak with voters, collaborate with staff, and share updates with the team. You’ll sharpen your organization and time management by juggling schedules, deadlines, and outreach goals.

You’ll also gain experience with digital tools that campaigns and modern workplaces rely on, such as spreadsheets, contact databases, and online communication platforms. Just as important, you’ll grow your confidence, learning how to step into new situations, solve problems, and take initiative. These are the kinds of transferable skills employers and admissions officers notice and value.

Build Your Network and Open New Doors

As an intern, you won’t just be learning from a distance, you’ll be working directly with Ted Nordblum, campaign staff, and community leaders. That means you’ll start building a professional network far earlier than most students. The relationships you form can lead to letters of recommendation, future internships, and career guidance long after the campaign ends.

You’ll meet fellow students who care about service and leadership, local organizers who know how to get things done, and professionals from fields like law, education, and small business. Being part of this network helps you see what’s possible for your own future, and gives you people you can turn to for advice, mentorship, and opportunities down the road.

Interns build lasting connections with mentors, peers, and community leaders on the campaign trail.

Help Create a Brighter California for Everyone

At its core, this internship is about more than résumés and references. It’s about helping create a California that reflects the hopes and needs of the people who live here, especially young people like you. By supporting Ted Nordblum’s campaign, you’ll help elevate issues that matter in your community, from education and affordability to safety, opportunity, and environmental responsibility.

Every conversation you have, every event you help organize, and every outreach effort you support contributes to a more informed, engaged, and hopeful California. You won’t just be watching change happen, you’ll be one of the people making it possible. That sense of purpose is one of the most rewarding parts of the internship experience.

📌 Key Takeaway: As a student intern, you gain real campaign experience, develop valuable skills, grow your network, and play a direct role in building a brighter future for California.
