NIU uses an online placement tool called Huskies Get Hired. The software allows employers to post jobs, accept applications, choose students to interview and schedule on-campus interviews. The software allows students to post resumes to general “resume books” and to respond to employer job postings with a cover letter and/or resume.
We strongly recommend that all employers and students use Huskies Get Hired.
The objective of the academic internship is to provide students with a supervised program of employment and academic experience to assist the student in determining career paths and objectives while obtaining academic credit. The internship employment period is a minimum of 10 weeks of full-time experience. Spring internships typically begin in early January and continue through late March or mid-April, depending on the nature of the internship. Summer internships typically begin in mid-to-late May and continue through early August. Fall internships occur from late August to late November.
