Job Summary

The Office is currently seeking three Summer 2026 Undergraduate Interns to join the Mondale-Humphrey Scholars program. This program is designed to introduce undergraduate students to state service and the Minnesota Attorney General’s Office. We are seeking students with all types of majors and school or career goals.

This posting is for a 10-12 week Summer session, beginning in June 2026. Interns will receive a salary of $20 per hour and are expected to work 10-30 hours per week.
