PROGRAM DATES
The ten-week Summer Fellowship Program is expected to begin on Monday, May 23, 2022 through
Friday, July 29, 2022.(Program dates are subject to change.)
COMPENSATION
The Fellowship Program has a strong educational component. Students are placed at a participating firm
on a random basis. Selected Fellows will be paid at least the equivalent to $20.00/per hour based on an
assumed 40-hour workweek.
OFFERS OF FUTURE EMPLOYMENT
Since the primary purpose of the program is educational, offers should not be expected for the following
summer. Fellows are welcome to apply independently to their firm for the next summer, or after
graduation. All firms are encouraged to interview participants from the Fellowship Program if the
students meet each firm’s hiring criteria. Removing the offer aspect emphasizes the educational intent of
the Program.
SELECTION PROCESS
Committee members of the Diversity Hiring & Retention Committee, in teams of 2 or 3, will interview
candidates. A meeting of the full Committee is then held to select the Fellows. Once the Fellows are
selected, they are paired with a participating firm on a random basis.
Candidates will be evaluated on the following criteria:
• Skills: Analytical ability, oral and written communication, and professional judgment.
• Personal Qualities: Personable manner, self-confidence, enthusiasm, poise, maturity, self-
awareness, and work ethic.
• Miscellaneous Factors: probability of success, and likelihood of staying in Sacramento.
