The Delaware River and Bay Authority (DRBA) is already thinking about summer, putting out the call for summer interns.
The DRBA summer internship program provides college students with hands-on experience in a professional work environment.
“The Delaware River and Bay Authority offers summer internships in a variety of fields: communications, public relations, engineering, culinary and hospitality, HR, maintenance and social media marketing,” said Jim Salmon, DRBA’s public information officer.
Salmon realizes it may feel a bit early to be thinking about summer, but says the timing is right.
“We’re trying to get a jump on things," said Salmon. "We know the students come home for the holiday season and we want to get the word out as soon as we can on the availability of these programs that start in June.”
Salmon says since the internship program started in 2012, more than 50 students from Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and many other states have successfully completed internships at the agency.
Applications with a resume can be submitted here and are due no later than Friday, January 31, 2020.
The internship program begins June 1, 2020 and ends August 7, 2020. Undergrads selected are paid $12/hour. Graduate students earn $14/hour for a 40-hour work week.
