I Will Ride – Student Jobs

Banner that reads

There are a variety of opportunities for students to gain experience working on the California high-speed rail project. We value students and know they are essential in building the nation’s first high-speed rail system. Below are descriptions of the different student job opportunities on the project.

Student Assistant Positions (State of California)

Student Assistant positions are jobs offered through the State of California for students to gain part-time experience with a state agency. Students can work in several units within a state agency including engineering, human resources, finance, accounting, IT, and strategic communications.

The California High-Speed Rail Authority (Authority) occasionally has Student Assistant jobs available. Any Student Assistant job with the Authority will be posted on CalCareers.gov.

Read the Handout ng Student Assistant to learn more about Student Assistant Jobs with the State of California.

Mga Programa ng Pakikipagkapwa

The Authority has worked with several organizations to host fellows for their service term at the Authority. Such programs include the nationally recognized Programa ng Sacramento State Capital Fellows at ang CivicSpark AmeriCorps program.

Mga Pakikipagsosyo sa Paaralan para sa mga Internship

Schools throughout California house internship programs for students to gain real life job experience. These internship programs partner with agencies and ask the agencies to host interns for a short season. The Authority has worked with programs like the University of California, Berkeley’s Cal-in-Sacramento program to host summer interns.

If you are a program administrator looking to explore a partnership with the Authority, contact us at iwillride@hsr.ca.gov.

Student Internships with Private Contractors

There are many private companies that work on the California High-Speed Rail Program as contractors. These private companies offer their own internships, fellowships, and entry level job opportunities that allow students to work on the California high-speed rail. You can find these companies by regularly checking what companies have been awarded contracts or ongoing procurements and bids at our Architectural & Engineering and Capital Procurements webpage.

If your company has a student opportunity related to the California High-Speed Rail Project that you would like to share in the next I Will Ride update, such as an internship, entry-level job, or scholarship, please send information about the opportunity to iwillride@hsr.ca.gov.

Education Partnerships

We’re proud our department has worked with the following education programs to give students experience working on the California high-speed rail either through student jobs or classroom projects.

Mga Boses ng Intern at Fellows

I was very fortunate to have the opportunity to complete a fellowship at the High-Speed Rail Authority summer of 2024. As a senior at UC Berkeley studying Society and Environment with a minor in Public Policy, I was incredibly interested in environmental policy and HSR was the perfect place to learn and contribute to my professional development. The environment and people at HSR were so supportive and encouraging to work on what I was most passionate about, and I am so grateful for my experience!

Komunikasyon Fellow, Cal-In-Sac Berkeley Program

My placement at the California High-Speed Rail Authority gave me immediate insight into what makes the state of California an exceptional place. I was surrounded by colleagues who are mission driven and passionate about delivering a transformative project to all Californians. The environment at the Authority was supportive and everyone pitched in to get the job done. I feel grateful to have been a part of this team and to contribute to the nation’s first high-speed rail.

Si Adan

Komunikasyon Fellow, Programa ng Capital Fellows

My service year within the High-Speed Rail Authority allowed me to do meaningful work in a subject area I care about. After working on a project with the size and complexity of High-Speed Rail, the mentorship and experience I’ve gained will continue to shape my career path long into the future.

Kelsey

Sustainability at Station Planning Fellow, CivicSpark AmeriCorps

As a fellow on this project, I was surrounded by people who really cared about my professional growth. My mentors met with me regularly and provided me all the resources and training to be successful. I truly believe in this project and sometimes I can’t believe I get to be a part of bringing high-speed rail to California.

Yaqeline

Komunikasyon Fellow, Programa ng Capital Fellows

Serving as an Executive Fellow with the California High-Speed Rail Authority was an amazing experience. I learned a tremendous amount from my mentors and colleagues, and I feel honored to have had the opportunity to contribute to this transformative project. Working at the Authority affirmed my desire to pursue a career in urban planning so that I can continue to work on meaningful projects like high-speed rail in California.

Micah

Komunikasyon Fellow, Programa ng Capital Fellows

Gusto kong magtrabaho sa proyektong ito dahil naniniwala ako na ang California High-Speed Rail ay isang mahalagang bahagi ng paglaban sa pagbabago ng klima at pagsulong ng higit na panlipunan at pang-ekonomiyang kadaliang kumilos. Ang parehong mahalaga sa aking personal na sigasig para sa proyekto ay ang lahat ng kamangha-manghang, mahuhusay, at mababait na tao na nakilala ko sa aking pakikisama. Ang aking mga tagapayo ay tunay na nagmamalasakit sa akin at nagtrabaho upang maging makabuluhan ang aking karanasan. Natutunan ko ang napakaraming praktikal na propesyonal na mga kasanayan sa pagpapaunlad ng propesyon at kaalaman tungkol sa gobyerno sa pamamagitan ng aking pakikisama at napakaswerte ko para sa pagkakataon.

Kaleo

Komunikasyon Fellow, Cal-In-Sac Berkeley Program

Ang aking pakikisama sa California High-Speed Rail Authority ay nagbigay-daan sa akin na gumawa ng mga koneksyon at bumuo ng karanasan na naglunsad ng aking karera sa pagpapanatili at pagbabago ng klima.
