We do not hire college students. We do not run an academic year internship program. However, start dates and hours are flexible. The Center for Responsive Politics typically hires 2-6 interns each semester and during the summer. An intern's main duty is to do research for one particular project, to which he or she is assigned.
Interns work in such fields as communications, health policy, and nonprofit management.
Internships are available during both the summer and the school year. Positions are unpaid, and are available each semester and during the summer. Interns assist the institute's staff economists in projects relating to U.S. labor markets, the environment, foreign trade, and other topics. Interns will assist with research, writing and general support for the Center's work on the Federal Reserve System and the financial sector. Internships are available throughout the year in the Research, Communications, Development, and Human Resources Departments.
