SkillBridge Internship Program
Mayo Clinic currently offers SkillBridge internship opportunities at our large medical centers in Minnesota and Arizona, or in a community-based practice with Mayo Clinic Health System in Wisconsin.
Mayo Clinic in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) provides military service members, who are within 180 days of separation from military service, with internship opportunities in a variety of different roles. The goal is to provide service members with opportunities to learn and train at Mayo Clinic’s world-class environment, as they prepare to transition from the military to the civilian sector.
Internship Objectives:
- Provide career skills training and hands-on experience opportunities in the world-class environment of Mayo Clinic
- Gain understanding of the Mayo Clinic workplace culture, and how it’s mission-accomplishment focus, and RICH TIES values align with military values
- Explore allied health career pathways that enable an informed decision
- Experience onboarding and integration into the civilian workforce by partnering with a Mayo Clinic veteran employee as a mentor
Process
Step 1: Receive verbal approval from your military chain of command to participate in the program. To learn more about the DoD SkillBridge program and to learn how to apply with your service branch, visit the website here: https://skillbridge.osd.mil.
Step 2: Apply for one of the internship opportunities. For questions, contact mcskillbridge@mayo.edu. To apply fill out the SkillBridge Internship Application Form.
Note: As published in the Joint ethics regulations of the Department of Defense and as outlined in the U.S. Department of Labor’s Fact Sheet #71 of January 2018, Service members participating in a SkillBridge program are participating in a Capstone training experience at the end of the military career and are NOT eligible for wages or other benefits from industry partners since the program is supported by the Department of Defense which will continue to cover the salaries and benefits of the participating members.
