Monterey County Works recruits 18- to 24-year-olds for paid Joby Aviation and hospitality internships
Summary
Monterey County Works announced paid internship cadres for young adults, including a Joby Aviation placement (applications due April 24) and a hospitality cadre (applications close May 1). Programs offer paid work experience, OSHA 10 and ServeSafe certificates, and a leadership credential.
Lauren Walters, a representative of Monterey County Works, outlined two paid internship cadres aimed at 18- to 24-year-olds: an open hospitality cadre (applications close May 1) and a Joby Aviation cadre (applications close Friday, April 24).
"The Joby Aviation cadre the applications close this Friday on the 24th and then the hospitality cadre that's still open the applications close on May 1st," Walters said, noting the programs pair cohort-based training and industry placements to help participants build resumes and gain on-the-job experience.
Walters described program benefits that include paid work experience, industry trainings and certificates such as OSHA 10 and ServeSafe where applicable, and an official leadership-course certification. She said cohorts provide peer learning that can make participants more competitive in a tight local labor market.
Applications are posted on the Monterey County Works website and can be accessed via QR codes on county flyers; Walters said a staff member will follow up with applicants after submission.
The moderator closed the briefing by thanking Walters and reminding listeners of the next weekly briefing.
