ESTABLISHING AN INTERNSHIP WITH OCSE: First, you would create an ad similar to what you may post on LinkedIn or Indeed that includes but is not limited to: job responsibilities and duties, requirements for the position (Knowledge specific to the student’s area of concentration, GPA, grade level, etc.), compensation, length of internship, and any other pertinent information. After that is sent to me with an avenue for students to apply (an email address or web link for your business), I will disperse it via email to applicable students. Once sent to students and they apply, it is between the company and the students at that point; however, if the company wishes to conduct on-campus interviews, I am happy to coordinate the setup of a room for that to happen. Mostly though, companies have interviews at their facilities so they can show students the grounds and they can get a feel for the atmosphere. The opportunity is posted on our internship website at https://www.wku.edu/ogden/internships/internshipopportunities.php, and is sent out across our social media platforms to gain as much exposure as possible.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to express them. I look forward to collaborating with you!
