The County of Butte is currently recruiting for college students to participate in our College Intern Program. The College Intern Program is a year round program, with priority being given to college students that are earning their first undergraduate degree. Internships may be part-time or full-time, depending on the department's needs, and are designed to recruit and train college students for skilled, professional and administrative careers in local government by providing an opportunity for them to become familiar with the practical application of courses being studied. Participants in this program will be given defined projects at their assigned County department with a defined timeframe for their completion. The work of interns is intended to supplement - not supplant - the work that would be done by a regular County employee. The County will work with program participants who may be able to earn academic credits from their College or University. It will be the Intern's responsibility to find out what the College/University requirements are to earn those credits and communicate that information to the County in order to coordinate that partnership.
