For the first time in history, the Executive Office of the President (EOP) is launching an EOP-wide paid internship program that will provide a stipend to participants.

The Office of Administration (OA) and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) are currently seeking students to serve as interns for their Summer 2022 programs.

The Office of Administration has a mission to provide administrative and business support services to all components within the EOP. These services include financial management, information technology support, human resources management, library and research assistance, facilities management, procurement, design and printing, mail and logistics, personnel and physical security, counterintelligence, emergency preparedness and enterprise communications, legal support services, and more.

The Office of Management and Budget oversees the implementation of the President's vision across the Executive Branch. OMB carries out its mission through five main functions across executive departments and agencies: 1) budget development and execution; 2) management, including oversight of agency performance, procurement, financial management, and information technology; 3) coordination and review of all significant Federal regulations from executive agencies; 4) clearance and coordination of legislative and other materials; and 5) clearance of Presidential Executive Orders and memoranda to agency heads prior to their issuance.

The Summer 2022 program for both OA and OMB will run from June 20, 2022 through August 12, 2022.

Students will be offered challenging and valuable experiences, which will build their leadership and professional skills. They will also be offered the unique opportunity to serve in the Federal government, alongside dedicated career and political public servants at the EOP.

Attached is the OA and OMB Summer 2022 internship program announcement letter.
