Clintons advertise unpaid intern role and paid associate position at foundation
The Clinton foundation posted an unpaid internship for Hillary Clinton’s office and a paid associate role for Bill Clinton’s team.
The Clinton foundation announced two separate openings: an unpaid internship supporting Hillary Clinton’s Madison Avenue office, tasked with research, memo preparation and general office management, and a paid special projects associate for Bill Clinton’s team to perform similar functions. The internship posting stresses a high level of professionalism and discretion. The associate role offers a salary, though the exact amount was not disclosed.
Commentators on social media mocked the situation, noting the irony of Hillary hiring an intern while Bill’s role is compensated, and joked about the inability to offer “internships with Bill Clinton” any longer. Both positions are part of the foundation’s broader staffing efforts.
Why it matters
It shows how a high-profile foundation structures entry-level and professional roles, drawing public attention to compensation practices.
