LISC Intern (Paid or Credit)


LISC has an opening for an intern with GIS skills, basic research and data
processing skills, and an interest in community/economic development.  The
basic work will be production of maps, data reports, background research,
preparation and formatting of presentations, all generally related to
commercial and economic development projects for LISC Chicago or LISC
MetroEdge.

The position requires approximately 20 hours a week.  We can either pay
hourly or work with the intern to use this experience to satisfy an
educational requirement.

The position is available immediately.  I know most have worked out their
summer plans, however, my current intern recently found a good full time
job (which is a great outcome for him!).  Along those lines, the upside of
working for LISC is great networking.  My four most recent interns are all
gainfully employed!


I will accept resumes until the position is filled.
