Dear Technical Aide Applicant,

Thank you for your interest.  You'll find below some information about the
3M Technical Aide program as well as the application process.  Once your
application has been received, it will be filed by your major and kept on
file for a year to be considered for Technical Aide opportunities.  When a
manager is looking to hire a technical aide, he or she will stop by our
office to go through the applications.  If your application is selected,
you will be contacted directly for an interview.

The 3M Technical Aide Program is designed to provide the 3M technical
community with temporary, part-time labor.  As a technical aide you will be
assisting the regular technical staff at 3M in the performance of their job
responsibilities.

The duration of this temporary assignment is intended to be less than 900
hours in any service credit year of 12 months.  It is not the primary
intention of this program that Technical Aides become regular, full time
employees at the end of their temporary assignment, although this will
occasionally be the case.

QUALIFICATIONS:

1.  High school diploma and some post-high school technical education
required.
