You’ve got goals, we’ve got internships. Let's produce incredible work and experiences in 2012!
About Knowledge As Power
KAP is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Seattle, Washington.  We're an organization that seeks to promote and inspire innovation in the public sphere through Gov 2.0 and Open Government initiatives (think OneBusAway or SeeClickFix). Our mission is to help individuals become informed and engaged citizens and we achieve this mission through civic skills workshops, an online service for interacting with legislatures, regional events on innovation, and through advising various government bodies.

If you're a policy or tech geek, it's exciting stuff. If you're an active citizen, it's invaluable.


New Media & Online Content Internship
Do you know new media tools like the back of your hand? Would you like to know what it takes to manage a nonprofit’s online presence? If you tweet, update, blog, pin, tumbl, or basically love sharing and connecting online, come do it with us! 

KAP is looking for a savvy intern to help manage our online presence. This person will work with current content - re-post, re-purpose, re-think it - and will help develop new online content that promotes KAP and public-sector innovation. The New Media Intern will keep our Wordpress blog and website bustling while helping produce short videos and other media that can be used across our campaigns and presentations.


Position Details
We require some experience using social media, even if only for personal purposes. If you have online content/accounts, be sure to let us know how to find them. We also seek applicants whom have some experience managing their own time on projects, as we operate virtually. Here a few more concrete details:

?	Requires 15-20 hours per week commitment for at least 10 weeks
?	Credit and no-credit positions are possible, just be specific when you write us
?	You don’t have to be a government guru to apply - but be open to learning a lot!


Working at KAP
KAP's work culture is different than most nonprofits – we’re more like a tech start-up. Our staff works virtually with weekly meetings in downtown Seattle. We value time off and respect the realities of life (cars break down, elders need care, and that thesis won't write itself). Because of the flexibility in our work environment, it's imperative that KAP employees are trustworthy, driven, self-starting and resourceful. A sense of humor always helps, too!


Tinker Time
All positions also include “tinker time”, which is your opportunity to brainstorm new ideas that can be incorporated into our work at KAP. We offer the flexibility to spend up to 20% of your time on tinker time. As ideas take shape, employees are asked to pitch them to the team to discuss its potential and deployment.


How to Apply
Interested applicants should send a short one page cover letter, their resume, and two references to Sarah Schacht at director@knowledgeaspower.org. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. And don’t forget to include any links to content you’d like us to see!
