Career & Internships
If you’re a world-changer, we want you on our team!
Internships Requirements
You’re a change maker. An internship at returned.org means you’ll be a part of something that helps create change in our world by ending child laundering.
You’re independent and innovative, with a passion for creative thinking and finding solutions.
You are a self-starter who thinks outside the box and provides solutions without constant supervision. We’re a small team, so you can jump right into group projects and work independently.
You’re organised throughout the duration of a project and are comfortable working on multiple projects simultaneously. You’re a firm believer that every detail matters, and you always meet your own, particularly high standards.
You come to work organised and prepared for meetings. You get things done. You’re a pro at meeting deadlines. If you don’t know, you ask questions and get what you need to get the job done. You don’t just show up, you make your work count.
Commitment
We’re looking for an intern to join the team at our Dallas office each semester (schedule is flexible). Please only apply if you are located in Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate remote interns.
Benefits
An internship at returned.org is an incredible opportunity for a student to gain experience with an international non-profit. This is an unpaid internship, but it may count for internship credit at your college or university.
