City of San Pablo Seeks Local Youth For City’s Internship Program

Youth have until March 24th to apply

San Pablo, Calif. The City of San Pablo has announced that they are seeking current high school students, GED, or recent high school graduates to apply to become interns within various city departments.

Applicants have until 5:00 PM on March 24th to submit their application on-line. The first one hundred applicants will be considered for an internship opportunity. Please note that internship slots are limited.

The City of San Pablo has long been committed to providing opportunities for local youth. In 2019, the City hosted 18 interns through their Summer Internship Program. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the internship program was suspended in 2020 and 2021. Nevertheless, the City hosted a virtual high school intern during summer 2020 from the Center for Youth Development Through Law, is hosting a UC Berkley student intern through May 2022, and launched a virtual college student internship in Spring 2021 with a second round of implementation in Spring 2022, serving 4 college level interns.

Although the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the City’s ability to host summer interns, the City was able to continue San Pablo City Hall Career Day, by hosting virtual events in 2020 and 2021. This fourth-year event is a collaborative event organized by the City of San Pablo’s Youth, School, & Community Partnerships Division and the Richmond High School Law Academy.

City Hall Career Day was started in an effort to expose students to careers in local government, increase their awareness of programs and services available to San Pablo residents, and for students to gain skills through interactive workshops with city professionals.
