Internships

At Global Minnesota, our interns are an important part of our team.

You live the job, learn the ins and outs of our organization, and contribute to our mission. Interns have the opportunity to make a real impact in our organization.

Internships for Fall 2024 are now closed. Please check back later this year for information on Spring 2025 internships.
