About The Position

This position is central to the missionaries' role to 'Invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel through faith in Jesus Christ and His Atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end.' The Research and Evaluation team seeks a PhD-level Research Intern to support the initial phases of a large-scale speaking assessment proof-of-concept project. The intern will contribute to early-stage assessment development activities, including construct refinement, rubric finalization, task review, and preparation for pilot testing. The intern will work closely with senior research staff and receive ongoing guidance throughout the term. Church employees find joy and satisfaction in using their unique talents and abilities to further the Lord’s work. From the IT professional who develops an app that sends the gospel message worldwide, to the facilities manager who maintains our buildings— giving Church members places to worship, teach, learn, and receive sacred ordinances—our employees seek innovative ways to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the world. They are literally working in His kingdom.
