iLEAD (Intern Learning Experience for Achievement and Development)

The NJDOL is dedicated to cultivating future leaders, especially in the area of public service. That is why we developed a robust summer internship program focused on providing professional opportunities within the Department which utilize and build interns’ Knowledge Skills, and Abilities. The project-based work experience opportunities for interns are available within the NJDOL’s respective divisions and will provide interns with meaningful assignments aimed to prepare them for a productive career. Applicants must be a current post secondary (undergraduate, graduate, or doctoral) student during the internship period.

Internship Location: Trenton NJ 08625 – some positions may require a commute to another NJ location. Selected interns must be able to travel to Trenton, NJ for multiple in-person, mandatory events throughout this internship.

Duration: 
Our summer iLEAD program lasts for eight weeks, from early June to late July, with a weekly commitment of 30 hours. Participants have the opportunity to possibly extend their involvement into our ten-week fall iLEAD program, which runs from September through November with a schedule of 15 hours per week.
