Policy Advisor Associate Internship — Always Hiring

Policy Advisor Associate Internship in Delhi at CryptoMize

Apply now for the Policy Advisor Associate Internship in Delhi at CryptoMize — a 6-month certified program on a rolling, always-hiring intake. Policy Advisor Associates here work alongside senior political strategists on the policy briefs that feed political campaigns, governance advisory, and legislative engagement across the firm's 18-country footprint. Interns do not summarize news from the back office: from month one you draft the policy briefs senior advisors take to client briefings, and your drafts feed directly into the counsel that reaches campaigns, governance clients, and political parties. Below is the complete Policy Advisor Associate internship description — required skills, eligibility, the selection process, and what your portfolio looks like at the end of the program.

01The actual work

What will you actually do as a Policy Advisor Associate at CryptoMize?

Learn the instruments first: read gazettes, bills, and committee reports daily, and write a one-paragraph plain-language summary of each item that touches an active account

Keep the legislative diary current — session dates, committee slates, listing deadlines — and flag collisions with client calendars before they cost a slot

Build reference notes on assigned jurisdictions: how a bill becomes law there, who signs what, and which committee owns which subject area

Assist opposition-research pulls under supervision — declared interests, prior statements, funding trails — with every claim linked to its captured source

Assemble the pre-briefing packs: the background sections senior advisors flip through in the car, tabbed, printed, and accurate

Take minutes in internal case reviews and circulate decisions with owners and dates the same evening

Carry one supervised research workstream from month two — a jurisdiction file you own — and hand it over documented at program close
