It is a boon for youth with no jobs across the country after the government, through the Public Service Commission (PSC), announced internships in different ministries, departments and agencies.
The PSC, in an announcement made through the Office of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and seen by Education News, said the recruitment of interns will be under the Public Service Internship Programme (PSIP).
The interns will be the seventh cohort to be appointed in the 2024/2025 programme.
The requirements for the internship position includes; one must have a Bachelor’s degree in any discipline from a recognised university, he or she must have graduated not earlier than 2018, as well as be proficient in computer skills.
The interns will be employed for a period of one year and will receive a stipend at a rate as determined by the government as per PSC guidelines.
Also, the interns will be awarded certificates on successful completion of the programme.
They should make sure to apply for the positions by or before September 2.
“Interested and qualified graduates are requested to make their applications through the Commission portal accessible through www.publicservice.go.ke or www.psckjobs.go.ke by September 2, 2024,” the announcement reads in part.
