Meme. Baby looking at the camera incredulously. "You're telling me that at this internship...I don't have to get you coffee?"
  1. Read this post in its entirety
  2. Go to ndi.org/current_openings, click on Internships, and read the JD entitled "Intern/Project Assistant: ICT Programs"
  3. Apply to the ICT Intern position with your shiny, impressive resume (don't forget your grammatically correct cover letter)
  4. Do a celebratory dance and wait for us to call you.

For bonus points, you could write us a love song and sing it to us in a YouTube video, create a meme around digital security, or solve the Traveling Salesman problem. Actually if you solve the Traveling Salesman problem you should probably go ahead and apply at the NSA.

Working on the ICT team isn't like your internship on the Hill. Yeah, there's paper to be pushed and research to be done*, but ICT interns get to work on some really cool stuff, not to mention attending events and posting on this blog. And the team is pretty awesome, too: we're a knowledgeable group from diverse backgrounds, all passionate about technology and democracy. If you like all things international, tech, and/or activism, our team is probably the right place for you.

Oh, and did I mention it's a PAID internship?**

Let us know if you have questions and we look forward to your application!

 

*It is an internship, after all.

**Which automatically makes it better than your internship on the Hill.
