Uncle Sam is Looking for Interns for Its New Blockchain Workgroup

As part of its new initiative focused on the importance of Blockchain technology, US State Department has started looking for a new intern.

The new working group opened by the US State Department is called “Blockchain@State,” and it will be managed by the Office of Global Partnerships. The main goal of the working group initiative is to determine the usefulness of research applications and distributed ledger technologies (DLT) in US foreign policy. One of the intern’s job responsibilities is to monitor key developments in Blockchain processes and utilize cases. Aside from that, the intern must prepare weekly reports for the new Blockchain workgroup.

The job may also require a host of different skills. A keen eye for research is needed because the intern must delve on a diverse range of Internet sources like tech blogs, forums, online channels, news sites, government pages, and academic research about Blockchain.

Extensive data preparation is also required because the intern needs to forward a report to a stakeholder organization. Additionally, the intern must also possess advanced communication skills. The scope of the job is global, so the intern must expect direct collaboration with several stakeholders.
