# of Predoctoral internship applicants in current training year: 1

Training Year: 2016 - 2017

The initial screening process of the intern cohort will be based on written application materials and letters of recommendations. It is expected the intern provide a cover letter; updated Curriculum Vitae; two de-identified writing samples/assessment, risk assessments, or case conceptualizations; and three professional references/letters of recommendations. Based on the aforementioned, the intern applicant will be invited for an in-person interview, during which they will be asked to provide responses to a series of vignettes. The applicant will also sit for a brief writing test to demonstrate their ability to write, conceptualize, and treatment plan "on the fly." Once an offer is extended, the intern applicant must complete a Livescan (finger printing), pass a background check, obtain medical clearance, and pass a urinalysis exam.

The intern applicant will be invited for an in-person interview, with two-to-three clinical staff members, including the Internship Director, during which they will be asked routine interview questions as well as to provide responses to a series of vignettes. The applicant will also sit for a brief writing test to demonstrate their ability to write, conceptualize, and treatment plan "on the fly." They will then be required to meet, briefly, with some or all of the current post-doctoral Clinicians for a round-table discussion/extended interview.

Gateways CONREP is looking for internship applicants who are motivated, flexible, and feel comfortable in a fast-paced, yet highly structured forensic setting. As such, the applicant must be open to the concept of providing forensic supervision--taking a sometimes intrusive stance in our clients' lives--setting firm boundaries and modeling prosocial behaviors and appropriate, collaborative relationships. We are also looking for interns who are interested in providing long-term treatment, with an element of crisis intervention, rather than short-term, brief therapy. The work of a Forensic Clinician is multi-faceted and requires much organization, flexibility, and time management skills, so we seek internship applicants who possess or are looking to foster/hone said qualities. Lastly, as the consequences of our work is far-reaching, the intern must be open to direct, constructive feedback when it comes to assessing and mitigating risk.
