Fall 2020 White House Internship Program

Hey y’all! Thought I’d make a forum since I didn’t see one up for this semester - anyone apply?

I applied and haven’t heard anything yet. I haven’t been able to accesses my account either.

I have had no emails/updates, but my application says “under review”. The timeline page says that on June 29th they will start notifications… My bet is COVID is slowing things down

I still can’t get into my account.

Do we even think this internship is happening anymore w covid? Like I’m kinda worried idk… I really really hope so. But I wondered if they’d just let their summer interns stay or cancel fall completely. With the election it’ll be so busy

I applied and have done a couple interviews. I am sure with Covid things are going a little slower than normal.

Congrats on getting the interviews! Do you mind telling us which department you interviewed for? I’ve read on other post that not all of them conduct interviews.

Has anyone been able to contact them via email? I tried but haven’t heard back.

I’d prefer not to say what departments. I didn’t include either of them when I ranked the departments on my application (I’d be happy with any department though!) For the first interview, they emailed me and scheduled it a week in advance. For the second one, they emailed me in the morning and we did the interview the same day. After both of the interviews, both departments said not to contact them and that all communication should be through the internship office. It seems like every department has its own process, so not hearing from anyone is probably pretty common.

Today is the day! Or the week anyways. I did get an email from the intern office but my account is still having issues.

Has anyone heard anything?

I got an email about a month ago saying I was selected as a “potential candidate” and had to respond to a few questions but haven’t heard anything since then.

Same here

so if I didn’t hear anything at all either in a past email or this week does that mean I’m out of luck

I hope at least some of those accepted will write “tell-all” books (or blogs). I know the field is crowded but there’s a thirst for more!

Has anyone gotten an email this week? Im still waiting

I got an email this morning

I am new to this. I had an interview a few weeks ago on the phone. I wrote to internship office last week and they said notifications get sent out this week. Anyone heard anything?

I spoke with someone today and she said we swill hear something by the end of this week.

Anybody hear anything yet or was directed to change their password? Does that mean anything?
