  • assist RFE/RL's outreach efforts
  • provide interns an opportunity to develop their skills through practical experience, thus increasing their prospects for employment
RFE/RL offers a limited number of places for interns, which are filled subject to the current needs of our Divisions/Departments. The internship usually lasts between one and three months, subject to renewal.
