About the role

NYC Department of Finance's Legal Affairs Division seeks a Tax Attorney Intern to assist the Tax Law Unit. Work with experienced attorneys, research tax laws, draft memoranda, and prepare arguments for conferences and hearings. Training and practical experience in DOF’s tax matters will be provided. The role offers exposure to real property taxes, business income and excise taxes, and regulatory work, with potential remote work up to two days per week under the agency's pilot program.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
