Intern Hunting Season!

By Cynthia Medina | August 12, 2011

It's that magical time of the year... It's less than 100 degrees outside, back-to-school sales are on, the Nationals have given up, and NDItech is hiring an intern!

If you're passionate about technology, care about international democracy and human rights, like to think about how social media is changing societies, and are always exploring the latest technological tool, then read on.  

As a summer intern and soon to be part-time fall intern, I’ve had a chance to explore the latest technological tools and approaches and identify how they can be used in NDI programs.  I also assisted in implementing a project for the Liberian Legislature that taught me the ins and outs of Drupal and how a website can be used to increase government transparency.  Other projects included included crashing tech events in the area, contributing to this blog, and helping out with paperwork (woo!)  In short, it’s been a fun and enriching experience, which is why I’m staying on board in the fall.

So, if you enjoy thinking about how technology can help build democratic institutions, create open societies, and build civil society, then you're our kind of person.

We are looking for a 20 hour commitment starting September 10th until mid-December. And, yes, it is paid.  For more details on the internship or if you’d like to apply, go to NDI's employment openings, click on Washington DC internship, and apply through the ICT Programs link.
