Rights and Democracy is accepting applications for a Policy & Legislative Intern for Winter Term in 2023.
Rights & Democracy (RAD) is a member-led, people’s organization in Vermont and New Hampshire. Our mission is to shift the political landscape through electoral and community organizing to ensure that the values and needs of our communities guide the policies of our government. We are doing this by building a popular movement to advance human rights, dismantle economic inequality, racism, and sexism, and to build a real democracy.
RAD Interns are the front lines of our legislative work, and a vital part to the successful passage of progressive policies in Vermont. Interns are able to interact with other organizational advocates, RAD members, and legislators as we research, track, and pass legislation. This position will report to the Vermont Movement Politics Director. This position will be primarily remote, with possible in-person activities (not required).

Data analytics is broken down into four basic types. Descriptive analytics describes what has happened over a given period. Diagnostic analytics focuses more on why something happened and predictive analytics moves to what is likely going to happen in the near term. Finally, prescriptive analytics suggests a course of action. Market watchers project the number of jobs for data professionals in the U.S will increase to over 3 million by 2022. This series includes interviews with many professionals who will share their vantage points on how they use data analytics in their career roles, their paths from campus to career, and career advice they would have for students interested in this career space.
MIDDVantage is a collaborative series developed by the Center for Careers and Internships and Middlebury in DC.
