ONCE THE INTERNSHIP IS POSTED

Upon approval, your internship will be available online for students to view and our office will begin marketing the opportunity to current COC students or recent graduates.

Interested students will submit a resume to the internship you posted. Career Connect by Jobspeaker will send you an email from news@jobspeaker.com announcing a student is interested with the resume included. This is a no-reply email.

You are responsible for contacting the student to make arrangements for an interview. You may contact the student directly from Jobspeaker using the “Add Interview” feature or by using the information provided in the student’s resume.

When you select a student for the internship, it is critical that you contact the Internship Office to ensure the student is registered for the correct internship class and Workers Compensation is in place for unpaid interns.
