Walter H. Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center

Political Science Research Assistant

July - August 2018 • Stanford, CA

What I liked

Flexible schedule, good pay, projects were on topics that I found personally interesting.

What I wish was different

More variety of work could have made it better, and perhaps more involvement in the drafting process. However, these things definitely depend on who your PI is.

Advice

It's very important to build connections with people, at school, at home, at work, etc. If you get to know professors, etc. at school or near home, they can often provide you opportunities that you would be hard pressed to get yourself.
