Has your summer job search been a roller coaster ride?
Well, it’s still not too late.
It’s not early either. But there are still many internships being posted on our Nittany Lion Career Network website. In fact, a quick search this afternoon shows 161 current intern postings just in the campus’ surrounding Central PA area.
These cover a variety of majors and have titles such as (going alphabetically) Accounting Intern, Administrative Internship, Business Development Intern, Campaign Intern, Development Intern, Communications/ Public Relations Intern, Civil Engineering Intern, Content Marketing Intern. Credit Analyst Intern. And that’s just a sample through the C’s!
Companies that are posting on our job board are both large and small, public agencies and private industry, including: Bravo Group, Metro Bank, PA Dept. of Corrections, YWCA, The Hershey Company, STV Inc, WebpageFX, and SanDisk Corporation, to name just a few.
In fact we have companies from A to Y: from Abraxas Youth and Family Services to the YWCA of York.
Among our office’s Career Peers are 4 students who will be working both locally at The Hershey Company (Finance), and doing research at the Milton S. Hershey Medical Center (Science), as well as far away–at Cedar Point Amusement Park in Sandusky, Ohio (Accounting) and Blackboard Inc. in Washington, DC (Marketing).
So, don’t limit yourself. Take a look at employers in other geographic areas too. Sometimes you can live with someone you know in that location, and sometimes you can find housing at area colleges in dormitories or apartments being sublet by other students. Some employers will even help find housing for out-of-town interns.
And we can all benefit from looking at our world from another point of view.
