Dataville Research LLC's Remote Graduate Internship in International Development 2019
Dataville Research LLC's Remote Graduate Internship in International Development 2019
Deadline: May 12, 2019.
Applications are open for Dataville Research LLC’s Cohort 9 Remote Graduate Internship in International Development.
Dataville Research LLC’s remote internship programme provides you tailored training, guidance and real responsibility from the beginning, quickly preparing you for entry-level positions in the international development sector.
International development is a very broad sector encompassing a huge range of organizations and job roles. Entry-level applicants need to be proactive, determined and flexible. You do not necessarily need to have a Master’s degree in development to ‘do development’. Most employers will look for at least six months and up to two years experience. This is so you can demonstrate practical knowledge of the sector.
Be
aware that getting opportunities ‘in the field’ can be difficult for
new graduates especially those without prior experience and internship
positions in this sector are very limited and difficult to secure.
At
the end of this 3-month programme, participants should have a grasp of
the rudiments of international development, data collection and
management in development research and programme implementation.
The
main target audience for this internship is international development
prospects who will be directly implementing and evaluating programmes.
Because of this, we generally stay away from very theoretical and
academic content and opinion pieces that discuss problems without
providing any practical solutions. A strong emphasis is placed on
experiential learning, meaning that interns will be learning through the
implementation of key phases of work in this internship.
