FOR EMPLOYERS

Student interns from Salem State College need on-the-job training. They bring youth and energy to your organization, as well as skills in editing, proofreading, research, and copy generation for all kinds of business support writing.

Suitability

The English Internship requires a student to log approximately 100 hours of work to earn academic credit. Those hours may be flexibly apportioned during the course of a semester or summer.

While a certain amount of ordinary office chores is expected, a substantial amount of an intern’s time must be engaged in preparation of in-house documents, published materials, or online content.

Time Commitment

Expect to train an intern as you would any new hire. In addition, a site supervisor can expect to devote some time to coordination with Salem State College. At the internship’s completion, the site supervisor will be asked to complete an assessment form.
