Conducting Prebuild Intern Interviews
Begin with a brief tour of system evaluation.

- A staff member is always on duty (you will not be alone!).
- Explain the responsibilities of interns
- Teach Hardware ID
- Instruct System Evaluation
- Monitor hard drive box
- Triage/transport power supplies, optical drives, cards, 'for build' boxes.
- Checking the cart and taking it back
- Explain what volunteer will get out of the internship
- Basic hardware experience and familiarity with the inside of a computer
- Teaching experience
- Participation in the Free Geek community
- (If the volunteer seems really interested in learning how to build computers or programming, do explain that System Evaluation (by itself) will not teach them how to build or program a computer. Doing the build program concurrently is an option.)
- The minimum commitment is three months.
