Student Intern #2304-1015-01

Student Interns are hired to provide special project related work within a variety of departments and gain hands-on experience in a field of municipal operations.

When you apply for an Internship position you should indicate the department(s) for which you are interested in working.

• Complete the online application process
• Submit a resume and/or letter of interest

Student hourly rates are based on the last academic year completed. Note that the burden of proof of grade advancement falls on the student. No adjustments in pay will be made until evidence of progression is provided by the student. They must provide the Department of Human Resources this information as soon as it is available.

In other words, a student who completes 12^th grade in June would be paid at the high school senior rate until September, and until they provide verification that they have advanced a grade.

The maximum number of hours a Student Intern can work may not exceed 19 hours per week. Approved work-study programs, semester and/or vacation breaks interns may work up to 35 hours depending on departmental funding approved by Management & Budget. 

Internships are not eligible to receive medical benefits, vacation pay, sick pay, holiday, union membership, or union contractual benefits. Any period of internship employment will not be construed in any way to mean probationary employment. Persons may not be employed in two concurrent positions with the City and/or the Board of Education at the same time.

Depending on assignment, additional pre-employment conditions may be required, which may include fingerprinting and background checks. Instructions and information on this pre-employment process are included in Conditional Offer of Employment.
