ExxonMobil Community Summer Jobs Program

Introducing College Students to the Nonprofit Community.  

For over 35 years, the ExxonMobil Community Summer Jobs Program (CSJP) has introduced college students to the importance of the nonprofit sector in our society. Since the program began in 1971 in New York City, ExxonMobil Foundation has provided over $6.6 million to support almost 3,200 community summer job internships.  Today it is active in 10 states, including Alabama, Alaska, California, Kansas, Louisiana, Montana, Oklahoma, Texas, Virginia, Wyoming and internationally in Angola.

 

Each summer, ExxonMobil Foundation provides 75 local nonprofit agencies with grants designated to hire college interns for eight weeks during the summer. Students are introduced to nonprofit social, cultural and health service organizations in the hope that they will consider careers or volunteer leadership positions in the nonprofit sector. Internship positions vary from caseworkers to public relations assistants to website designers.

 

The Volunteer Center of North Texas administers ExxonMobil CSJP on behalf of ExxonMobil Foundation. The Volunteer Center has administered the program in Dallas county, the largest in the country, since 1991.

  

Once grants have been awarded to the 75 nonprofit organizations, each organization is responsible for recruiting, interviewing and hiring their summer intern by April 30, 2008. 

 

PLEASE NOTE: Application deadlines vary with each position.  Refer to agency flyer or contact agencies for individual application closing dates. 

 

Intern Criteria:

Interns must meet the following criteria to be considered for an internship:

·         Currently enrolled full-time as an undergraduate (no graduate students are eligible).

·         Completed his/her freshman year (by the time the internship begins).

·         Returning to college full-time as a sophomore, junior or senior in the fall of 2008.

·        Carrying a minimum of 12 credits per semester.
