The posting

SUMMARY

The Affiliate Affairs department serves as the liaison to APHA’s 52 state and regional public health associations (“Affiliates”) and supports APHA’s National Public Health Week campaign. Interning in this department means you’ll be part of the team supporting state organizations that bring the leadership and advocacy work of APHA at the local level. You’ll work to support APHA’s Annual Meeting (including working with us in Minneapolis this fall), manage databases and support these organizations in building public health infrastructure and capacity, working to improve health for all.

NPHW is APHA’s annual public health awareness campaign, held the first full week of April. In this internship, you’ll help to create tools for people to host NPHW in their own communities, including on campus. You’ll also help us plan national events and activities. It’s one of the most exciting and fun parts of working at APHA, and every department contributes.

The Affiliate Affairs and NPHW internship provides students with many opportunities to learn about various public health issues, planning and implementing a national campaign and public health practice on the national, state and local level. The internship encourages collaborative work with other departments. All APHA interns also work on the Association’s Get Ready campaign, working on group projects each semester.

This is an US-based internship, and candidates must be able to work in the US during the internship. APHA internships are unpaid and located in Washington, D.C.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
