Job Description



Job Description

: The UI/UX Design Intern contributes to ONC’s mission of providing nonpartisan news, opinions, and policy solution-focused and driven by youth completing essential tasks in the technology department. We are 80% done building our website, and need extra support to clean up a few page designs, fix some bugs, complete a few pages, and tighten up the main website. This Intern will work in FIGMA or even WP, but they are also responsible for creating designs including, but not limited graphics for our website, newsletters, advertisements, fliers etc. This is not a theoretical internship.

This intern will work closely with the COO, CEO, Team Lead, Director of Technology and other UI/UX Design Interns while also working independently.  

 

This position is remote, with work primarily conducted over Zoom and Slack, so applicants must be comfortable coordinating in a remote environment and are expected to maintain a high level of communication. This intern must commit to at least the end of the Summer semester (April 30, 2025). However, many people choose to extend their internship past the amount of time they initially committed to, provided their performance meets the required standards.

 

Benefits: Flexible schedule, college credit, professional networking, and resume-building experience.

 

Compensation: This is not a paid position.

 

Responsibilities:

  • Conceptualize designs for our website redesign

  • Review our existing website, make recommendations, and design edits for our website.
