It's time! DSHS is now accepting applications for the 2021 Summer Internship Program.
Jourdan Kovacs
Talent Acquisition Business Manager at Washington State Department of Social and Health Services
We have multiple internships available at various locations throughout the state.
Our Internship Program is designed to attract students from a wide variety of educational institutions and socio-economic backgrounds. The internships will afford you the opportunity to explore state government human service related careers while still in school, create contacts with state employees, and complete a meaningful project. We are confident that the experience gleaned from your internship will meet or exceed you towards your career goals.
Prior internships have included placements with exposure to social work in the Center for Forensic Services at psychiatric hospitals; survey research at Community Service Offices; development of programs for persons with developmental disabilities, service for our aging population, and policy development work for the department. Some interns used their DSHS experiences to select or change their majors and some have used the experience to formulate totally new career paths, including law!
