Good Afternoon, 

We have some very exciting campaign fellowship opportunities available for Democratic campaigns in New York City. This would be a great opportunity for students or recent grads looking to get involved with local politics this summer.

Would you forward this to your students or anyone that may be interested in gaining experience in politics and digital campaigns?

Thank you,

Jordan Tenedora

New York City Campaigns Fellowship

Looking to get involved with NYC politics? We are seeking dedicated and energetic Fellows to work with a Democratic Political Consultant based in New York City. This is a great way to add to your resume while contributing to several important NYC elections.   Fellows will gain experience with campaign activities including: contributing to press releases and e-mail blasts; writing social media posts; arranging, attending and photographing events, editing images and videos; analyzing data, and the many aspects of 21st century campaign management.

No experience is required, but any related work/internship experience or knowledge of HTML, CSS, graphic design, photography, data analysis, video editing or statistical skills are all pluses

After this Fellowship has ended, you will have an in-depth knowledge of grassroots political organizing, and will be prepared to run your own digital campaigns in the future. You also will have made important professional and personal connections that will help advance your career in politics.

This opportunity is available immediately and will run until the September 10th election. Full-time and part-time positions are available, and hours are very flexible.

Email your resume, a brief writing sample, and your availability to start to NYCDemInterns@gmail.com with the subject line "Campaign Fellowship".
