Interns

This is a paid internship and participating in this proven program provides valuable exposure and experience that applies to any field you are pursuing. The program pairs two or more interns together to work on a provided project with clear goals and objectives given by the company. Interns will also have the opportunity to work closely with a professional that has expertise and/or a professional background in the field of experience.

The internship is for a minimum of five (5) consecutive weeks. High school students must be at least 16 years old to apply and be available to work between the dates of June 1st and July 31st. Competition is great for these coveted opportunities. Be sure and take full advantage of the exposure the host companies are offering to expand your skills.
