Intern Program
Upon leaving office, President Clinton established the William J. Clinton Foundation with the dual missions of constructing and endowing the Clinton Presidential Center and Park in Little Rock, Arkansas and continuing the work of his presidency to strengthen the capacity of people in the United States and throughout the world to meet the challenges of global interdependence.
If you are an undergraduate, graduate or professional student or a recent graduate with your own strong interest in crucial issues of our day, the Clinton Foundation Intern Program offers a unique opportunity for growth, learning and meaningful service. We are looking for people who are dependable, enthusiastic, and professional. The Foundation has three locations: New York City, Little Rock, Arkansas and Boston, Massachusetts (The Boston office has a separate Volunteer Program, and manages the placement of volunteers in Boston and internationally). The Foundation has Intern Programs in two cities: Little Rock and New York. Little Rock focuses on Foundation business, the Presidential Library and the Clinton School of Public Service. In New York City we have three offices that all use interns: The Harlem Office is the official office of the former President, the downtown Water Street office is where his activities for non-profit and for-profit work are determined and organized, and the mid-town office houses the Clinton Global Initiative operation. Use the tabs to the right to learn more about the specific positions at our four locations.
The intern semesters mirror that of the school year, with the spring term extending from late January through May, the summer term from June through August, and the fall from September through December. During the fall and spring sessions we require a minimum of 20 hours per week and in the summer 30. Each location offers intern positions described in more detail below. No matter which branch of the Clinton Foundation you work in, you will experience some similarities between each of the programs:
- Hands-on experience: Interns have the responsibility of interacting directly with staff, volunteers, and Foundation stakeholders, in such activities as communications, development, and scheduling. Through firsthand experience you learn how the Clinton Foundation functions on a daily basis, and assist with this process directly.
- Helping to accomplish the Clinton Foundation’s goal: In each intern class, we look for candidates who are diligent, resourceful, professional, and intellectually curious, as we believe these qualities in our interns reinforce and bring us closer to the Clinton Foundation’s mission of meeting the challenges of global interdependence.
- Brown Bag Lecture Series: Each semester, the Clinton Foundation hosts a number of Brown Bag Lunches, where guests, including senior administration officials, and leaders in politics, business, entertainment, and journalism discuss issues of the day over an informal lunch.
