The State Services Summer Internship Programme, formerly administered by the State Services Commission (SSC), is to be discontinued.

In light of the Government's focus on improving frontline service delivery, the SSC has re-prioritised its work programmes to align with the Government's priorities. As a result, some initiatives including the State Services internship programme will not go ahead.

Some Government agencies, however, are proceeding with internal internship programmes. To find out if the agencies you are interested in are continuing to host interns, please check their websites. A list of Government websites can be found at newzealand.govt.nz. Alternatively, for more information on intern/graduate vacancies go to www.jobs.govt.nz.
