CWA is looking for a Fall and/or Spring semester law clerk. This is an in-person position and you must be able to work from a D6 CWA office in Austin, Dallas, or St. Louis at least one day per week. This part-time position is paid. Alternatively, we can sponsor an intern placement for credit. 

CWA is an international labor union representing workers across various industries, including telecommunications, airlines, news media, manufacturing, and public service. CWA fights for the rights of workers to have control over their workplaces and their lives. CWA’s Austin headquarters oversee the union’s operations in Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, and Arkansas.

This is a rare opportunity to get in-person work experience with a labor union in Texas and will give you experience working with a variety of issues in labor law. You will work with CWA’s District Counsel and may have the opportunity to work with CWA’s organizing staff and Local Union support staff.

The position will include research and writing as well as assistance in all parts of the grievance and arbitration process. We prioritize a candidate who has a passion for workers’ rights.
