AmDocs info below:
I’m the Community Partnerships Associate with POV Engage, the Engagement department within AmDoc that oversees the internship program.
Through our internship program, interns will gain training and mentorship through our hands-on educational program, designed to provide a “behind-the-scenes” look at public media and the documentary field. We are committed to working with individuals to meet their unique learning objectives.
Subsistence and travel stipend is available and college credit may be arranged. I would also like to note that we are not a production company. Our internship program runs year round and is parsed out by semester.
The Summer semester goes for 12 weeks long with 24/hr work weeks. Both the Fall and Winter/Spring semesters run for 16 weeks long, however are shorter work weeks with 18/hrs per week. The various departments your students may be selected for (based on their applications and follow-up interviews) are Engagement, Communications, Series (POV, America ReFramed, POV Shorts), and Development.
When we open up our internship application for Fall (happening fairly soon!) your students may apply via our website here:http://www.pbs.org/pov/about/jobs/2/
Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have about our internship program!
Very best, Rachel • Email: rfriedland@pov.org
