Business Outlook
Pros
- Amazing experience for those interested in international affairs, politics, democracy, conflict, and security - Substance heavy work environment with an opportunity for recent grads or current students to offer foreign analysis and research - Meeting Jimmy Carter! - Very organized, structured program with full events, seminars, team building retreats, and even a trip to Plains, GA (Jimmy's hometown) - Prestigious internship--recruiters often ask me immediately about the Carter Center rather than my other experiences
Cons
- Unpaid, could only do it because my parents live in Atlanta - Management can be tangled - Downtime between projects, felt like interns were sometimes under-used and forgotten about (typical, really)
