Career & Internship Opportunities

Protect Privacy advocacy internship -The U.S. Public Interest Research Group is a non-profit advocacy organization. We're looking for interns to join us in standing up for the public interest. One of our issues is data privacy. We live in a digital world. Almost every interaction we have with companies happens through technology - which makes it possible for the company on the other end to harvest lots of detailed and sensitive data about you.In the last couple of years we’ve seen fast food loyalty apps harvesting people’s geolocation data 24/7 even when the app was closed; Amazon illegally keeping children’s voice recordings even after parents submit deletion requests; and GoodRx sharing people's prescription data with advertisers. The Public Interest Research Group's Don’t Sell My Data campaign is looking for part-time interns this spring to work to put people back in control of their data and rein in big tech companies who have taken data collection practices too far.  Internship RequirementsInterns should commit somewhere between 5 - 25 hours a week for at least 6 weeks. Preferred start in January. However, exact dates and work schedule are flexible based on your availability. Internship ResponsibilitiesInterns will be selected for the internship that best fits their interests and skills.Internship responsibilities may include:State policy: Help track the evolving field of state legislation throughout the beginning of the 2024 legislative session. Assist with organizing and recruiting state lawmakers to attend a national educational webinar we’re putting together about what strong data privacy laws should look like. Write concrete tips guides for states with privacy laws on the books about how residents can take advantage of their rights and keep these resources updated as new regulations are passed. This is our current priority position. Long-form writing: Conceive of, pitch and work with an editor to craft long-form pieces about the role tech plays in young people’s lives or answering questions that you think Gen Z is asking. Past interns have written powerful personal stories, insightful explainers, important news updates, and pieces that are just plain fun.Advice: Craft useful tips guides covering topics like: how to request your social media data, how to set the highest privacy settings, or how to identify apps that are harvesting excessive data about you. You will have your name listed as an author on public-facing sites and have the opportunity to pitch ideas for new pieces that are exciting to you while helping maintain our existing library.  Research: Serve as research support on an upcoming advocacy report furthering our goal of getting strong laws passed or regulatory rules written. Past intern projects have included first-hand research on trying to request their data from companies as part of a big comment to a federal agency, and testing out VR apps for a report exposing the dangers of this new technology for kids and teens. Topics are still evolving, but may include looking at the adverse affects of social media on teen mental health; apps that harvest data about kids; or stopping banks from selling your financial data.Social: Craft strategic social media content for Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and other platforms to publicize our research, tips guides and further our campaign message. Boost your work in your own social networks and help us identify new channels for reaching the broadest audience possible.   You can check out more of our past intern’s work here. QualificationsCandidates must have completed at least one year of college. The right people will be motivated, curious, solid writers, open communicators, and have a strong desire to learn about working in the advocacy field protecting the public interest for the long-term. Maybe you already know a lot about the issue area, or maybe you want to learn more. In either case, we’re looking for folks who are eager to learn, able to hit deadlines, and are excited about getting feedback for improving their writing and creating something you’re proud of. LocationSome part-time in-person time may be available to those in the Boston area. Most interns will work remotely. Remote interns can be based anywhere but must have access to a reliable internet connection, a working web camera, and be available during normal business hours at least 2 days a week.Check with your school's Internship Coordinator BEFORE accepting the hiring offer to determine if this position satisfies the criteria for receiving academic creditApplicationInternships with PIRG are unpaid.
