We are 80% done building our website, and need extra support to clean up a few page designs, fix some bugs, complete a few pages, and tighten up the main website. This Intern will work in FIGMA or even WP, but they are also responsible for creating designs including, but not limited graphics for our website, newsletters, advertisements, fliers etc. This is not a theoretical internship.

However, many people choose to extend their internship past the amount of time they initially committed to, provided their performance meets the required standards.
