Becoming an Effective Mentor For updated information, please check the Staff Internship Program website. By working on critical campus projects, interns gain new work experiences designed to build skills that help them reach their career goals and increase their competitiveness for transfer or promotion. Interns are mentored by senior University staff members who provide training and professional development support. Employees can apply for competitive internships advertised in the UCB Job Listings on the Office of Human Resources website.
Staff can also develop their own self-initiated internships.
Applicants must have a record of strong work performance, demonstrated initiative, and a proven ability to learn from new experiences. Employees must obtain permission from their home departments in order to participate. Mentors must be excellent role models, experienced in coaching employees, and committed to staff development. This workshop demystifies the application process and gives you tips on pulling together an effective application packet. No enrollment necessary.
