Internship Search Strategies for Government, Policy, & Advocacy

Amy and Susan discuss internship search strategies for government, policy, advocacy, and international affairs. They detail the three elements of a good search strategy and how to spend your time for maximum results. Some of the resources they mention in this podcast:

• Success Stories - an interactive database where you can search for examples of internships and research experiences held by fellow WashU students.
• Washington University in St. Louis's (WUSTL) Alumni & Student page on LinkedIn - find out what others have done with your major, in a particular city, or at a particular employer. Useful for expanding your target list too. Simply look up the organization you're interested in and scroll down a bit to find similar organizations. 
• WUSTL Stipends for Unpaid Summer Internships
• WUSTL Academic Credit for Internships
