Oakland International High School

Keywordsadolescents, school-based

  • Websitehttps://www.oaklandinternational.org/
  • Application deadline: Mid-April 2022 but if you want to apply after please do as well - timing is a bit off with pandemic
  • Application Requirements: Please send a resume, cover letter and 2 reference letters, with at least one of those reference letters related to mental health work to laiapedreno@gmail.com

    Because trainee candidates haven't had any experience in the field yet, a reference letter related to mental health work can be from a volunteer service you participated in the past or are currently involved in, from a teacher in your program or from a job you have or had in which you were supporting people. My preference is that the reference letter is not from a therapist that is or was providing services to you. We require bilingual candidates. Once I receive your application, I will contact you to set up an interview. After that, I will let you know an approximate timeline of when I will let you know if we're offering you the position or not.
  • When do you accept/onboard new trainees? Fall (Aug/Sept)
  • Best point of contact for inquiries: Laia Pedreno Mateu, Supervisor, laiapedreno@gmail.com
  • Additional Information: Since the Oakland International High School serves students that are recently arrived and are learning English, we really require bilingual candidates in one of the languages that are most spoken by the students, especially Spanish.
