ASAN and Freddie Mac Looking for Interns on the Autism Spectrum

Freddie Mac, a leading mortgage finance company, is partnering with the Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN) to create a more inclusive workplace. Starting next year, Freddie Mac will be offering 2-3 internships for recent college graduates on the autism spectrum with backgrounds in statistics, mathematics, economics, computer science or information technology. ASAN will be working with Freddie Mac to provide employer training on accommodation needs and recruiting qualified applicants on the autism spectrum. We’re looking for resumes from recent college graduates on the autism spectrum with the following qualifications:

— Degree or background in mathematics, computer science, statistics, economics, or information technology;

— Some experience with statistical modeling software, particularly SAS, SPSS, Stata, R, or SPlus;

— A strong work ethic;

— A willingness to work in a collaborative fashion to craft a job description that is both accessible and meets Freddie Mac’s business needs;

— Applicants must either be currently in the DC Metro area or be willing to relocate to the DC Metro area for the duration of the internship.

These internship opportunities will be paid and may lead to further opportunities with the company. All internships will be based in the DC Metro area. Please email your resume to resumes@autisticadvocacy.org. We look forward to hearing from you!
