Executive Intern

The Executive Office of the Center for American Progress is responsible for directing and overseeing all policy developments and educational and communication outreach at the Center. Working in the Executive Office will afford interns the opportunity to acquire a comprehensive understanding of the Center. Exposure to all aspects of CAP – educational efforts, policy initiatives and administrative organization - will provide interns with unique insight into the workings of a fast-paced nonpartisan public policy research institution dedicated to finding progressive and pragmatic solutions to significant domestic and international problems. Executive Office interns will perform a variety of activities including: short web-based research assignments, maintenance of the department’s event folders, assisting with the preparation of meetings for the Board of Trustees and Board of Directors, and administrative and logistical support as needed. Interns will have the opportunity to attend most CAP sponsored events, including policy forums with leading experts on critical issue areas and progressive film screenings.
