If you’re a Hocking College student with aspirations of becoming a business professional, one of the steps you'll need to take towards achieving your goal is to seek out an internship.

The students who secure these internships will earn credit for the following courses:
Interviews are going to be held on Tuesday, December 4 in Oakley 312 from 9AM to 4PM. Any student interested in interviewing for these available internships should contact Micah Covert by email at covertm29000@hocking.edu or by phone at (740) 753-7213.
Once a student knows what they want to do for their career, it's best for them to start building their resume by gaining work experience. One way to do this is through internships, which is a structured work experience that’s supervised by a professional in the field.

This position, which is typically related to that student's field of study, is meant to enhance their personal and academic development. Unlike apprenticeships, students won’t be required to continue working for the company since internships typically last for a certain length of time (i.e. seasonal, 8-weeks, etc.)
All students should get an internship during their college career for the following reasons:
