Testimonials
Audrey Shannon, Milton Resident
I had a really valuable and exciting time being an intern at the City of Milton’s City Hall during the Summer of 2019. I formed relationships with a number of kind and helpful people across departments and learned so much about how government functions at the local level. Being able to work in a professional environment and learn valuable lessons about taking initiative, asking for help, and working under a strict timeline prepared me for my later work experiences. I highly recommend the City Hall intern experience if you’re interested
