Need Help This Fall?  Hire a School Year Intern!

August 4, 2023

Internships don’t have to stop when students head back to campus.  Many college and university students are still looking to expand their knowledge of mechanical contracting with real world experience through school year internships.  Schedules and available hours might look a bit different due to their classes, but if your company is willing to be flexible, then a school year internship is a win-win for everyone.
