Our Vision
As content interns, our vision is to establish a collaborative and inclusive work environment that encourages creativity, diversity of thought, and continuous learning. We at Chen Law Journal value the humanity and contributions of those we work with, inside and outside of the organization. Content interns at Chen Law Journal will learn new skills and foster new experiences in a collaborative environment. Being an intern at this organization is about taking something away from this learning experience.
Summary Description
Chen Law Journal is seeking rising second-year (sophomore) or higher high school students, undergraduate, and graduate students to participate in the contents department. A content intern will learn tasks including but not limited to legal education, graphic design, and journalism. We will work with interns to foster a learning experience here at Chen Law Journal. In this role, you will make significant contributions to every team here at Chen Law Journal. Content interns will have an impactful, hands-on experience at this organization. Other forms of tasks include but are not limited to project tasks, reports, and presentations.
Content interns will work on a voluntary basis, but we encourage applying for external funding from a school program or other known opportunities. Although Chen Law Journal is based out of New York City, interns will be working on a remote basis due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Qualifications
Ideal candidates should have a demonstrated interest in public service and law, as well as the ability to work with and support a wide range of communities and a diverse and inclusive workplace. At Chen Law Journal, we believe opportunities should be sincerely entry-level. While prior experience with graphic design or journalism is preferred, it is not required. We encourage any applicant with little to no experience but are committed to making a social impact to apply.
Applicants must be high school students (rising sophomores or higher), undergraduate students, or graduates.
