The San Francisco Fellows program is a unique opportunity to learn about public administration in local government while working full time as a San Francisco City employee. The program is looking for enthusiastic, creative, hard-working individuals who are interested in long-term careers working in the public sector in the City and County of San Francisco.

Competitively selected applicants will join a cohort of Fellows for a 12-month full-time work experience as City employees. Fellows will earn a salary, plus health, dental, retirement and other benefits.

Fellows work on various programs and projects that have a direct impact on City operations. Projects span a broad range of City functions and departments, involving analysis, planning, and program development.

The cohort experience includes regularly scheduled learning sessions built into the Fellows' work schedule to provide a well-rounded, thorough introduction to San Francisco government operations, policies, and strategies.
