Youth Employment and Internship Opportunities

The Youth and New Professionals Secretariat within the Ministry of Government Services co-ordinates several provincewide employment programs to attract a diverse array of new talent to the Ontario Public Service (OPS).

The 2012 launch dates for two of the programs; the Ontario Internship Program (OIP) and the Summer Employment Opportunities (SEO) for students have now been announced.
The OIP application period is now open. Until January 25th, at 12 noon, recent university and college graduates (within the past two years) can apply.
OIP introduces recent university and college graduates to the OPS, offering two-year, entry-level, paid internships in a variety of focus areas.
The government provides summer employment for students throughout the province. SEO positions will be posted February 17 and March 9, 2012. Updated information on summer student employment is now available on the website at www.ontario.ca/careers. Interested candidates may select Youth and New Professionals to learn more about the programs, how to apply for the OIP and SEO positions and to discover the broad range of career opportunities available in the OPS.
