Overview
Details
RFE/RL Internship Program offers meaningful work experience for university students and recent graduates in order to:
- Support RFE/RL's mission by providing independent journalism experience to young people from our broadcast regions, who will return to their countries to practice impactful journalism.
- Assist RFE/RL's outreach efforts.
- Provide interns an opportunity to develop their skills through practical experience, thus increasing their prospects for employment.
RFE/RL offers a limited number of placements for interns, which are filled subject to the current needs of our divisions and departments. As such, interns should expect to devote at least three months to their RFE/RL experience, subject to renewal. However, interns seeking full-time, intensive internships for a shorter duration are also considered.
Interns can support the work of the following Divisions/Departments within RFE/RL:
- News Division (Language Services, Current Time, Multimedia)
- External Affairs, Legal
- Operations Division (Information Technology, Broadcast Operations, Broadcast Engineering, Digital News Archive, Pangea Digital, etc.)
- Innovation & Audience Engagement (Audience and Growth, News Products, Marketing, RFE/RL Academy, etc.)
