There are many ways for you to explore careers in Los Angeles County as an intern. Whether you’re a student looking to learn, a veteran of the armed forces, or a college graduate ready to explore a career in government, there’s no better way to start.

An internship with the County of Los Angeles gives you on-the-job training, real-life work experience, and endless career opportunities.

Program Overview

The program’s goal is to place college/university students within County departments as student interns for the completion of specific projects, research, or studies ordered by the Board of Supervisors or developed by a County department. These internships are unpaid and projects are carefully designed to offer each intern a practical and meaningful work experience. Interns normally spend 8-16 hours per week at their internship unless noted differently on the project description.

Who Qualifies?

Junior, senior, or graduate level students who are currently enrolled in good academic standing and will be completing their internships for academic credit at a partnering college/university. Interns must be able to provide their own transportation to and from the internship site. As a general rule, interns are expected to be available at least 8 hours a week.
