U.S. Dep't of State, Native Hawaiian Relations Office-Washington, DC

U.S. Department of the Interior, Office of the Secretary, Native Hawaiian Relations Office– Washington, DC

Duration:                     3 - 6 months
Clearance:                   NONE
Position:                      Unpaid Intern – Policy Analyst
Positions Available:    2


Summary:  This internship provides an opportunity to work on various tasks with significant policy and budget implications. The incumbent will work on issues of great interest for the Native Hawaiian Community, the State of Hawaii, and the Department of the Interior, by directly supporting the Director of the Office of Native Hawaiian Relations on all aspects of the program.

Projects are assigned based upon the Intern’s experience, interests and needs of the Office.  Possible projects include: assisting with rule-making activities, updating the Native Hawaiian Trust Lands Compilation, and creating a Federal programs guidebook for Federal Program Managers serving the Native Hawaiian Community.

Internship Goal:  The goal for each intern should be to complete a product (or complete it enough that the next intern can complete the product and both can take credit) that shows a potential employer they are ready to be hired.

Required Experience:  An individual with an interest and background in Hawaii is strongly preferred, but not required. Applicants should be able to write quickly and concisely, analyze difficult policy issues and work effectively with other agencies.  However, the main attribute needed is someone who is a self-starter and does not need constant hand holding.

Hours:  With a time difference of five to six hours between DC and Hawaii, the intern’s office hours will be flexible and telecommuting is normally an option.  Our basic feeling is that as long as you are able to get your assignments done, it matters little when or where you do it.

Accommodations:  The Intern will be provided with office space, phone and internet in the Main Interior Building in Washington, DC, located at 1849 C Street NW.
