Internship Opportunities
at PAL-C
Are you a highly motivated
and energetic person who is interested in US government
relations and working with the Pakistani-American community?
PAL-C is looking for volunteers to help with event planning,
policy implementation, and administrative handling for its
office in Washington DC.
The Pakistani American Leadership Center provides an Internship
Program to develop qualified professionals in fields in
which Pakistani-Americans are traditionally underrepresented.
The program enables young Pakistani-Americans to increase
their awareness and exposure to fields that are traditionally
neglected. It is intended to increase awareness among young
Pakistani-Americans of the opportunities available in fields
such as government, public affairs, media, and academics,
while encouraging those who already have such interest.
PAL-C interns are inducted into the program at the headquarters
in Washington DC. There, the interns facilitate all administrative
functions of the office, provide support to the Executive
Director and Board members, and serve as PAL-C liaison with
members of Congress. All projects are carefully selected
to ensure that they provide valuable and substantive experience.
All positions are available during the Fall (September to
December), Spring (January to April), and Summer (May to
August) terms and are unpaid unless otherwise noted. The
position and duration of the internship can be modified
to fit a candidate's interests and availability.
Requirements
Applications must have completed at least two semesters
of undergraduate study at an accredited college or university
by the start of the program.

of the following items:
