City Year New York provides hands-on learning opportunities for undergraduate students interested in non-profit administration careers. Interns will support a variety of projects that help City Year carry out our education mission by assisting in customer service, research, data collection, event execution, and more. Each intern will be matched with a specific department (descriptions below). Additionally, each intern will assist with general office operations, administrative work, event support, and data entry. Internships are typically between 10 and 20 hours per week during business hours (9am-5:30pm, Monday-Friday), and can be flexible with a student's academic calendar and extracurricular commitments. Please note that all internships are office based and interns do not serve in schools.

The following internship is available at City Year New York for immediate hire in March 2014:

Evaluation: Responsibilities include supporting our Evaluation team in spot checking weekly data submissions for accuracy, maintaining our data systems and organizing data from FY14 (FY14 means July 2013-June 2014).

Through their work, this intern will gain insight into how a large non-profit organization manages data processes and outcome data.

Interns will have the opportunity to participate in Corporate Service Days with our Development team, Lunch and Learn seminars with members of our staff team, and will be paired with a manager who will serve as their mentor throughout the internship.
