Fall semester internship at the Linguistic Society of America

The Linguistic Society of America (LSA) seeks a student intern for Fall semester (September - December). This job would probably be a bit much for a first year or sophomore, but a junior or senior Linguistics major with good time management who wants to gain experience working in professional organizations/non-profits might want to check this out! Deadline is at the end of this week, so you’ll have to hustle. From the full listing on the LSA website:

Interns will gain experience with writing, research, database management, social science policy, and a variety of administrative tasks. Please see the position description below for additional details. The position is open to undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in programs leading to a degree in linguistics or a related field.

This part-time position involves 18 hours of work per week, with a stipend of $3500 for the duration of the semester. Our preference is that the intern spend a portion of their work week in the LSA's office in Washington, DC. The remainder of the work may be performed virtually from a remote location of the intern's choosing. Currently, most LSA staff are working a hybrid of remotely and in-person on selected days.

Please submit a cover letter, resume, and contact information for three academic/professional references to: lsa@lsadc.org, subject line: “LSA Internship Application.” The deadline for full consideration is August 7, 2022.

P.S. the LSA hires a student intern in every semester and during the summer, so if this sounds interesting to you but Fall is not the right time, keep an eye out for their future calls!
