North Hempstead Announces 2011 Internship Program

Manhasset, NY—Supervisor Jon Kaiman and North Hempstead Elected Officials announced today that North Hempstead is welcoming interns for the 2011 internship program.

“A Town of North Hempstead internship offers an invaluable learning experience for those interested in understanding how the public sector provides exceptional, quality of life services for our residents,” said Supervisor Kaiman. “Serving your community and working to make a difference is certainly a noble cause.”

The internship program provides students with work-related assignments connected to their academic major or general interest. The goal is for interns to receive a work experience that puts theory learned in the classroom into practical workplace skill development and work ethic.

Internships at the Town include, but are not limited to, the following: Building Department, Office of the Town Clerk, Office of the Receiver of Taxes, the Department of Information Technology, Public Relations & Media Department, the Department of Services for the Aging (DOSA), and the Department of Parks and Recreation.

Students must be currently enrolled in a college or university or have applied to or been accepted into a degree program. Graduate students must be currently enrolled, or accepted in a graduate program. High school seniors are encouraged to apply as long as they are 17 years of age or older at the start of the internship.

Anyone interested in applying or learning more about the internship program at the Town should email their resume and a brief cover letter to internship@northhempsteadny.gov. Residents may also call 311, or (516) 869-6311, to connect to the Town Internship Coordinator with any questions they may have regarding the program. You can also learn more about the program online at www.northhempsteadny.gov.
