In order to qualify for this position, candidates must submit the Atlantic Council internship application materials available on our website. Required materials include:

Approval by the Jeffrey A. McLean Foundation is required to move forward in the application process.

The Jeffrey A.

They provide talented interns for small businesses and non-profit organizations while ensuring the necessary income for students seeking to advance their careers.
