Job Description

What do I need to include in my application?

A complete application includes filling out our form, along with all of the following:

• A cover letter about yourself, your skills, and what you want to get out of the fellowship.
• A copy of your résumé.
• Contact information for three references.
• The following positions require writing samples: Bret C. Harte and Peter F. Sloss Artistic, Education & Community Engagement, Marketing & Development, and Media Relations.

What should I submit as a writing sample?

• Writing samples should be 2–5 pages in length. An excerpt of a previous work is okay.
• Artistic fellowships require two writing samples. One piece should be about a play (criticism or analysis) and the other should demonstrate your ability to communicate an idea.
• Education & Community Engagement and Marketing & Development require one writing sample. This can be an academic essay or play review.
• Please do not submit creative writing (short story, play, or movie script) as a writing sample.

Is parking provided for fellows?

There is street parking available at our Harrison Street campus. However, we do not provide parking in our housing facility or at the theatre. Our housing and theatres are in Downtown Berkeley, and free parking can be challenging. Public transportation (bus and subway) is available and accessible from all our facilities. Fellows are eligible to receive discounted fares on public transportation.

Can I apply for more than one position?

Yes! As part of the application process, you are asked to list your top two fellowship positions that you would like to be considered for.

Do you offer high school internships or fellowships?

Berkeley Rep does not offer high school internships or fellowships. High school students interested in participating in Berkeley Rep programming should check out our Teen Leadership Council.

Are non-U.S. citizens eligible to apply?

Yes. However, applicants are responsible for securing and providing all necessary visas and/or work permits for participation in the program.
