The Project Vote Smart National
Internship Program provides a unique lesson in the study of American
politics. Students from across the nation and around the world come to
our high tech research center in the Montana Rockies for ten weeks to
help American citizens educate themselves about elected officials and
candidates. By providing this information in an easy and accessible
manner, Project Vote Smart believes that citizens can better defend
themselves from the political hype and misrepresentation characteristic
of present day political campaigns.
Interns play a crucial role at
Project Vote Smart and make up the vast majority of our staff. The
individual talents, ideas and hard work of our interns have been
instrumental in the success of many of our most important programs.
Since the Project researches
thousands of elected officials and candidates' backgrounds, the work is
often tedious. However, if you are interested in making a genuine
contribution to your Nation, in an idealistic and positive environment
-- located in the middle of a natural wonderland -- we would love to
have you join our team. There is plenty of room to learn and grow with
the organization. Interns often return as staff members after they have
finished their college careers.
College students and recent
graduates typically participate in our National Internship Program.
Interns must commit to ten consecutive weeks, but may intern anytime
during the year. We accept applications on a rolling basis and have no
deadline, but interns are encouraged to submit their applications early
because space does fill up quickly. Interns live on-site at the
Project's Great Divide Ranch and scholarships pay for all living costs,
including room and board.
