Intern Selection
We are fortunate to have numerous colleges and universities located in Atlanta and the surrounding area. As a result, we also have a high volume of potential intern candidates every semester. Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate many qualified candidates, but we do our best to offer valuable intern experiences whenever possible. To increase the likelihood of being selected, here are a few tips to remember when applying:
Important Things to Consider:
We are only able to accept a few interns each semester. To be considered, we recommend applying as soon as you are aware of your course requirements.
Intern opportunities are placed on an “as needed” basis. Our best candidates are willing to work wherever there is a need/opportunity.
Internship days and hours are driven by the preceptor’s schedule and need. A good intern candidate is willing to work when needed.
Nursing clinical rotations are coordinated between the nursing school staff and CDPH. If you have any questions regarding nursing clinical rotations, please contact Karla Ayers. Pharmacy students should contact Craig Sherrill. Please note: Unfortunately, at the time, we are unable to provide any practicums to nurse practitioner students.
