Under California law, if you're under 18 & have not
graduated from high school, you must obtain a permit
to work at any time of year, including summer vacation.
You must be at least 14 to obtain a permit. (There's an exception for Entertainment Permits.)
You must obtain a Work Permit for each specific job. Therefore, you
must get a job before you can get a permit. There
is no such thing as a general permit.
All Work Permits expire 5 days after school begins in August. All work permits must
be renewed at that time.

LOCKHEED INTERNSHIP. |
|
| |
The Solar and Astrophysics department of the Lockheed
Martin Advanced Technology Center has been collaborating
for 20 years with PAUSD to provide a Science Work
Experience Program in a research environment.
The Center’s lab encourages creativity in an informal and
relaxed environment; however, students are expected to
establish and maintain a professional working attitude.
Each student will be considered a co-worker where
responsibilities and concern for the projects are shared even though it is understood that the student’s background
is limited. Self-motivation, dependability, and reliability are
musts. Students will be given projects and will be expected to complete them in a timely manner. Questions and open
communication are encouraged. It is understood that
students will require and be given, training and support
to complete tasks.
The work takes place at the Lockheed buildings on Porter
Dr. in Palo Alto, midway between Gunn and Paly. The pay
rate is currently $10.00 per hour. Participation in the program
requires a minimum of 12 hours per week during the school
year and 40 hours of full-time work weekly during the summer,
from 8:30-5:15 with a 45 minute lunch break.
During the school year, the part-time work must be done
between the end of a student’s school day and 6:00 p.m.
when the lab closes. Work is best done in blocks of three
or four hours each. This may require a student to adjust
his/her schedule so that the last period of the day is free.
The lab is closed on weekends, some national holidays and
for a winter recess. Students are expected to work during
school holiday periods when Lockheed Martin is working.
Lockheed students will be required to attend the Work
Experience class that meets on Tuesday during the school year.
During both the school year and the summer, time off for
vacation or other business may be permitted with notification
to and approval from the immediate supervisor. Students
applying for this internship should be aware that they are
making a major, long-term commitment. Lockheed knows
that schoolwork takes top priority, but they expect that
extracurricular activities will not interfere with work at the lab.
Requirements for consideration for these positions are a GPA
of 3.5+, strong PSAT Math scores, and recommendation by
a recent math or science teacher. Students must be in their junior year when they apply, be an American citizen or a
permanent resident. Students must have a SIGNED Social
Security card or SIGNED Permanent Resident Card.
The selection process for students starting work with
Lockheed in June will begin in March. Details of particular
positions available will not be known until March.
Applications are available in the Work Experience Office.
Interested students must submit a resume including
PSAT/SAT scores, copy of SIGNED Social Security Card
/ Permanent Resident Card, teacher recommendation to
Mrs. Gyves in the Work Experience office at Gunn or Paly
as soon as possible. Please place in mailing envelope with name, phone, and cell phone number on front.
Questions: Mrs. Gyves, mgyves@pausd.org;
phones, Gunn 354-8221, Paly 329-3816.
Application Deadline Thu Apr 17. |

IMMEDIATE NEED
If you are interested in entrepreneurship and the web, we have an internship opportunity for you. We're looking for an enthusiastic, motivated summer intern to help grow Customized Engraving. Customized Engraving is the online division of a 30-year-old Palo Alto company, and we are experiencing rapid growth. At our current rate of growth, we expect to double sales over last year.
We are accepting applications from individuals at least 16 years old. You should have an impeccable eye for detail and accuracy. In addition, you should be punctual and be willing to work with changing conditions as every day will bring different challenges in a casual, fast-paced environment.

Because our company is small, you will be given the opportunity to work on strategic, critical projects that have a direct impact on company operations. Examples of prior internship projects include new-hire training materials and new product lines.
Customized Engraving holds business hours between 9:30am and 6:00 p.m.; this position is flexible around classes and school events. No prior experience needed; we will train specifically for each task. This is an unpaid internship.

• |
Self-motivated |
