Fellowship Opportunities Catholic Relief Services


The Catholic Relief Services (CRS) International Development Fellows
Program is intended to give newly graduated students who are interested
in a career in international relief and development an opportunity to
increase their overseas experience and gain broad exposure to CRS
programs as a Program Assistant. Each year, CRS has approximately
20 to 25 placements with our Country programs (based overseas) or in
our audit department (based at headquarters although requiring 80% -
85% international travel). 

Country Program Assistants take a one-year assignment in a CRS office
overseas. Job responsibilities vary greatly from one country to another,
although generally the work is in the programming department. 

Audit fellowships are for six months and are based in Baltimore; these
Program Assistants spend approximately 12 to 15 weeks traveling
internationally to conduct financial audits of CRS programs. The audit
program assistants are asked to commit to an additional year as a
salaried junior auditor before accepting another CRS assignment. 

Our goal is to place Program Assistants in positions where they can
draw on their previous education and work experience, while broadening
their skills. Many of our fellowships lead to regular positions with Catholic
Relief Services.
