The
Office of Economic Policy, U.S. Treasury Department is currently looking for
college students interested in Economics, Finance, or Public Policy for our Spring 2013 internship program. Our program
runs year round with three sessions: January through May, May through
August, and September through December. Our program is about
substance. Interns are generally assigned a long-term research project as
well as smaller projects. They are also expected to attend Congressional
Hearings and think tank lectures and presentations and summarize these events
for the Assistant Secretary and other senior level economists. Candidates
should have strong writing skills, be able to work independently, be well
organized and highly motivated. Interns are expected to work between 32
and 40 hours a week. There is some flexibility in the work hours if you
are taking classes while in D.C. Our intern positions are unpaid.
We do provide a subway subsidy to help defray commuting expenses.
If you
are interested in applying, submit your resume (with your GPA included), a copy
of your transcript (unofficial will suffice), two writing samples and three
references to Christine.Devlin@treasury.gov. Applications are
due November 1, 2013.
U.S. citizenship required. For further information, please contact
Christine Devlin, Office of Economic Policy, U.S. Treasury Department,
