These positions are part-time (three to six months), unpaid online internships. They suit second-year MA candidates seeking to consolidate their studies and develop their professional skills, but they are open to all. Internships can be undertaken from any location, though candidates from the US East Coast may not be accepted due to time differences reducing their ability to participate and ours to support them fully.
Please upload a resume, any relevant social media or writing samples and a cover letter telling us about your interest in interning at CHINA POLICY to https://policycn.com/careers. Please upload all documents in PDF format. Short-listed candidates will be sent an application exercise to complete.
