Due to the small size of the agency, only 20 to 30 interns are chosen. Those who are not selected are encouraged to apply for the next semester. Students at the undergraduate and graduate levels are eligible. Students are required to submit a resume, writing sample, and a letter stating period of availability. Each resume must include date and place of birth, social security number, current address, and telephone number.
Final clearance depends upon the applicant s ability to obtain the appropriate security clearance.
USTR is a Drug Free Workplace. Recent or current drug use is not acceptable. Selectees will be required to complete a confidential pre-employment security questionnaire that includes questions on alcohol and drug use. USTR reserves the right to disapprove tentative selectees based on information provided in this questionnaire. The process requires four to six weeks following receipt of application materials.
