For 12 summers, The Business Council has been surveying Fairfield County employers for internship opportunities for students throughout the region.

During the balance of the year we suggest you visit InternHere.com, which provides a large pool of internship opportunities for both students and employers.

Sponsored by the Governor's Office for Workforce Competitiveness, InternHere.com seeks to help retain and attract college students in Connecticut and Western Massachusetts by providing an easy to navigate website listing internship opportunities throughout the region.  Student and employer participation in InternHere.com is free of charge.

Based on the results of two recent college student surveys, the state found that students consistently indicated that they are leaving the region after graduation due to the perception of the lack of job opportunities.  However, 51% of students who had successful internships and co-ops in the area were more likely to stay in the region.  

If you are a student, or if you are an employer looking for interns, please visit InternHere.com to find out what opportunities are available to you.
