LADOT Paid Internship Opportunity
The City of Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) is an organization with a mission to lead transportation planning, infrastructure project delivery, and operations in the City of Los Angeles. We work together and collaborate to deliver a safe, livable, and well-run transportation system in the city and the region. We are looking to fill 30 "Student Professional Worker" (SPW) positions. Our Student Professional Workers bring new knowledge and perspectives to our engineering and planning teams and truly make a difference in the projects we deliver to the community.
These positions are year-round internships with flexible scheduling around academic commitments and have telecommuting options. For each position description, there is a general note regarding telecommuting options; however, for highly qualified candidates that attend a university out of the Los Angeles area, we may be able to modify the work plan to accommodate full-time telecommuting. The job bulletin attached explains the variety of open positions, job duties, and skill sets that each hiring manager is looking for. The hourly pay is approximately $17.74. We are looking for students at a sophomore level or higher, that are currently enrolled in a 4-year college or university working toward a degree in a field related to transportation or computer science, or for students in a junior college, community college, or trade school pursuing a degree or certificate program preparing them for a career in drafting or computer-aided design.
Our organization is committed to hiring and retaining a diverse workforce at every level of the department. Most of the SPWs that we have hired in the past have gone on to full-time careers with the Department of Transportation. Over the last five years, we have worked diligently to provide safe and equitable transportation options for all residents and neighborhoods. We are looking for your student leaders to join our team and continue to make this important work reflected in our transportation system.
