• Detailed Information

  • We are hiring young adults aged 18-26 with or without a high school diploma. You don’t need any previous work experience. Here’s how the process works:

    Step 1:  Are you returning to us? Submit your Interest Form including a Return Request.

    
    

    Step 2: We’ll invite you to an upcoming Hiring Day at Civicorps. Our team is here to help you fill out your application and forms, answer your questions, introduce you to other applicants, have some food/snacks, learn about your new job in either conservation or recycling, and set you up with our education and training programs (high school diploma, driver’s license, college track, etc.) Start your new job the following Monday!

    Step 3: In this two-day orientation program, you learn more about our program and meet the supportive staff you’ll be working with. You get your uniform, learn about the tools you’ll be using, and meet your teammates.

    Step 4: The day after the two-day orientation, you start work and get placed on your new crew! You receive cash in hand at the end of the day: your first big leap towards your dreams coming true.

    Got questions? We are here to answer your questions or help you fill out the form. Please contact our Recruitment and Relations Manager today  by calling or texting: (510) 753-3461.

    
    

    High School Diploma

    Civicorps’ partner Alameda County Office of Education’s Opportunity Academy has two teachers permanently onsite to support our students in getting their high school diploma.

    As soon as you’re hired, we help you figure out a personalized schedule in order to obtain all the credits needed for graduation. Then you work directly with your teacher to create a study plan that meets your needs so you can study at your own pace.

    How do you prefer to learn? Teachers coordinate classes to be done online or with paper packets that you can complete on your own time. You’ll meet face-to-face with your teacher at least once a week, and we offer as much tutoring as you need. We also have a quiet computer lab where you can focus on your school assignments after your workday.
