Internship Search Suggestions

If you secure an internship outside of KnightWork, the employer must still post the position in the KnightWork system in order to be considered for course credit. Refer your internship provider to the Employer Posting Instructions listed at www.marian.edu/internships.

Networking

• Request an informational interview with an individual who holds a position of interest.

Company Research
