One other option: My AI Governance and Strategy team at Rethink Priorities offers 3-5 month fellowships and permanent research assistant roles, either of which can be done at anywhere from 20h/​w to 40h/​w depending on the candidates’ preference. And we hire almost entirely based on performance in our work tests & interviews rather than on credentials/​experience (though of course experience often helps people succeed in our work tests & interviews), and have sometimes hired people during or right after undergrad degrees.
We aren’t currently actively hiring, but people can express interest here.
(I just happened to read this post because I’m interested in GovAI, and then realised my team’s roles seem relevant to this thread—I don’t originally come here to do recruiting :)

Also, I’m really excited about GovAI’s work and about them getting great hires, and I’d suggest people typically apply to many orgs/​roles and see what happens rather than trying to just choose one or a few to apply to.)
