Want to get experience in IT? This is a paid IT internship at a school

This is a paid internship (with hands-on training of IT skills) at a school in Cupertino.
It requires on-campus work. This is a good job for both experienced people and folks who are new to IT, because we have scaled-up the tasks for people with more experience (we have trained everything from A/V to Linux servers).

  * Do you like helping people?
  * Do you have some experience helping people with tech?
  * Do you want some cooperative help to complete IT projects (instead of sink-or-swim)?
  * Do you like a mix of following instructions and the creative process of troubleshooting?
  * Do you want to get more experience in IT?

This may be a great opportunity for a tech-student or someone with experience in customer service, IT-tutoring, Audio/Visual, email list management and/or Google Docs.

Future employers usually want people with experience in IT and this opportunity could put you ahead of the competition. 

Prior interns have said that they are getting many more interview-offers since getting this internship and everyone said that they learned new things at this job.

Each week, we will train you in specific areas of IT and then you will apply them with specific tasks (such as system setup, AP config, documentation writing and more).
Your people-skills and learning-speed are more important to us than your technical-skills.
We will provide you with weekly hands-on technical lessons, projects, or challenges in an IT area. Topics will range widely from creating a table-top network, or troubleshooting audio-visual systems, or tutoring someone how to use a feature in Google Sheets, or researching Google Drive permissions, or updating inventory.
You will probably enjoy this internship of you like: Organizing things & data as well as helping people (in-person and on email), learning new things.

Note that we have some COVID-19 preferences (you may need to wear a mask indoors, depending on community spread and local policies) although some of the work can be done outside, weather permitting.
