UNPAID INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITY WITH NEVADA COUNTY HUMAN RESOURCES!

The Human Resources Office of the County of Nevada is seeking a front-desk intern. The front desk of the HR office is a busy place, with visitors coming in, calls ringing, and emails arriving. The front desk is a key hub of activity that supports the entire office made up of 8 regular staff and 3-4 temporary employees and interns. We see the front desk internship as an opportunity to learn office skills in a supportive, teaching environment. While you're learning, you're also engaged in meaningful projects which are usually fun and challenging.

We expect our interns to demonstrate core County competencies of integrity, customer service, and follow-through on assigned tasks. Keys skills or knowledge that would help you be a good candidate for this role include a willingness to learn, comfort around basic Microsoft Office Software (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams), and ability to use standard office equipment such as a copy machine and multi-line phone.
