Process for Hiring Interns

Step 1: Determine how you will use an intern. Write a position description that outlines the intern's responsibilities, qualifications, and your expectations. See Steps for Developing an Internship for more complete information about creating internship programs.

Step 2: Complete Dickinson's  Posting Form document, including as much descriptive information about the internship as possible (students are most attracted to positions when they provide thorough explanation of the responsibilities).

Step 3: Email the form back to:
Amity Fox, Assistant Director/Internship Coordinator 
foxa@dickinson.edu

Step 4: The Career Center will post the internship position on DickinsonConnect, Dickinson's internship and job posting database.

Step 5: Students contact employers via phone or email (unless otherwise requested by employer) and employers conduct interviews and hire qualified candidate(s).

Step 6: The Career Center may periodically follow up to obtain updated internship information.
