FAQs 1) What does an average day in the life of a FIRE intern look like? Interns typically start the day by catching up on and discussing recent news. Throughout the day, interns collaborate with various FIRE staffers in helping to support FIRE's multifaceted response to breaking news and our ongoing defense of free speech. Interns work both individually and in teams, and are involved in a variety of functions. This includes everything from development and conference planning to education and outreach. Interns also take part in a number of educational sessions with FIRE's staff and visiting free speech experts. 2) Is the FIRE internship open to high school students, graduate students, law students, or international students? No. At this time, the internship is only open to undergraduate students (rising sophomores, juniors and seniors) studying at institutions in the United States. For more information about other opportunities at FIRE, please visit our jobs page. 3) Will FIRE provide housing? No, housing and transportation are the responsibility of individual interns. The FIRE office is centrally located in Philadelphia and offers an array of nearby affordable housing and transportation options. Interns have often used sublet Facebook groups to find housing for the summer. 4) Can I complete the internship remotely or as a hybrid? There is not an option to complete the program remotely or as a hybrid program. 5) What are the required hours? The FIRE internship requires a full-time commitment of 40 hours per week. Our office hours are Monday to Friday, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Interns must work the entire 10-week term. 6.) Are the start and end dates flexible? Interns must work the entire 10-week term, and we cannot accommodate adjustments to the start and end dates. This is because the cohort dynamic is critical to the success of the program - we want all interns to start and finish together as a group. We also do not allow time off or vacations during the summer session, as the program has a robust calendar of speakers, events, and professional development opportunities. Every week is packed with valuable experiences, and we want all interns to get the full benefit of the program. 7.) Is previous camp counselor experience a requirement to be selected for the internship? No! Previous experience is not required to be selected for the summer internship. However, past experience as a camp counselor or equivalent position is seen as a positive. We encourage all interested in the summer internship to apply regardless of your previous camp counselor experience. 8.) What are the benefits of applying early? We typically hire only 8-12 undergraduate interns but receive nearly 500 applications each year. Submitting your application early ensures that your materials are reviewed before the majority of spots are filled. In fact, by the end of January, roughly 70% of our intern class is already selected. Don't wait-apply early to maximize your chances of securing a spot. Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the United States. FIRE is an equal opportunity employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status or any other characteristic protected by law.
