Being an intern at CGS was an incredibly rewarding and enjoyable experience. I learned so much about the state of international issues domestically and how Congress, non-profits, and NGOs work to bring about change. I gained so much knowledge at CGS not by observing, but by getting involved with these projects and working directly with others who promote these goals.
I felt that I was able to do so much more at CGS than I would have at other places. The staff was always warm, friendly, and genuinely attuned to my interests and abilites. The atmosphere in the office was very open, and everyone made sure that I felt like I was reaching my full potential. At CGS, the interns play a huge role in everyday operations as well as long-term goals, which is what makes the internship program here so unique and valuable.
