Do you have an inquisitive and analytical mind? Are you looking to further your career with practical experience in a critical global industry? Do you enjoy learning technical subject matter, or maybe even have an interest in internet infrastructure? If so, TeleGeography’s summer internship could be an ideal next step for you. We’re looking for self-motivated and capable students to fill full-time, paid positions for our 12-week summer internship.
Who is TeleGeography ? We’re a research consultancy in the heart of Washington, D.C. that tracks the development of global communications infrastructure. Our work supports telecom operators, equipment vendors, investors, enterprise network operators, and other stakeholders. These clients aren't passive information consumers, but active participants in the global telecom industry.
Our summer internship program offers a unique opportunity for students to interact with leading industry experts and to learn about internet networks and infrastructure. We keep the context of our work at the forefront and offer a weekly discussion series to interns which explores different functions of the company and the markets we research. Covered topics include an overview of the submarine cable network, wholesale carrier market, global pricing dynamics, impact of emerging technologies, TeleGeography’s use of marketing analytics, and our approach to consulting.
What do we need from you? Interns conduct extensive company surveys and research data center facilities, operations, and enterprise data services. Their work directly contributes to our Data Center Research Service and Business Broadband Research Service. Sought-after qualities include:
Our interns come from a variety of backgrounds and go on to do great things. While many specialize in international affairs, they represent a variety of academic fields including economics, market analytics, policy, and geography. Alumni of the TeleGeography internship go on to pursue careers in business, consulting, law, diplomacy, and internet infrastructure research. Prior experience in telecommunications is NOT required. Please also note that interns do NOT typically practice coding skills or statistical modeling.
If TeleGeography sounds like a good fit for you, please send both a cover letter and a resume to internship@telegeography.com. Cover letters are required and applications without them will not be considered. We are still looking for additional candidates as of March 24th.
Further details: This position is full time. We hope to hire a team of five interns who will each be compensated at $18.40/hour. The internship will last from May 26th - August 14th. Our office is hybrid, with employees typically coming into our D.C. location on Thomas Circle twice per week. Preference will be given to candidates who are able to work in our D.C. office, but we will consider exceptional candidates who are fully remote.
Note on AI use in writing cover letters: As this position does not require any telecom experience, we are particularly interested to know why candidates are applying for the internship and how it may fit into their educational journeys. The use of artificial intelligence is of course permitted but please ensure the resulting letter explains why you applied for the role and demonstrates how your previous experiences showcase your skills. Please do not rely solely on AI to write your applications for you. All cover letters will be reviewed by real people, so consider them your opportunity to speak directly with hiring managers.
