The Consulate General of Israel to New England offers semester-long and summer internship opportunities for undergraduate students in the Boston area. As an intern, you will experience work in a fast-paced diplomatic environment while utilizing skills developed in your academic career. We offer internships for the Consulate as a whole, with the chance to "focus" on a department of your choice that suits your interest and career goals. The following departments have focused internship opportunities:

• Academic Affairs
• Political Affairs
• Press & Media Relations
• Public Diplomacy (Community Relations)
• Economic Affairs

In each of the departments, interns will respond to telephone and email information requests about Israel, perform computer research, send out materials, and participate in the daily functions of their respective department.  Assignments vary depending on the sort of programs taking place each semester, as well as the interns' strengths.  We accept interns for the Fall, Spring, and Summer semesters. All internships are unpaid and designed for Undergraduate students. Interns are required to work at least ten hours per week.

The Consulate requires all those applying to send a completed application, current resume, cover letter, letters of recommendation (optional, but strongly recommended), a CORI Police Report (which can be filed for at your local Police Department and sent in after the rest of your application as it takes approximetly 2 weeks to recieve) as well as a completed Internship Application to the Director of Academic Affairs by April 1st, 2012.
