Business HIRE
Gain internship experience while making a difference in a rural community.
The Business HIRE (High-Impact Rural Experiences) program is a high-impact experience dedicated to placing Poole College of Management undergraduate students in paid summer internships at companies in rural North Carolina counties. Students are matched with rural companies based on their industry and functional role preferences and spend the internship immersed in that community, building both personal and professional relationships.
This impact-driven program gives Poole students a way to apply what they’ve learned in the classroom and gain invaluable on-the-job career readiness skills while having a positive economic impact on rural North Carolina counties.
This full-time, 12-week, paid summer internship program also provides career coaching, professional development workshops, and a process to help translate the skills you learned on the job to future employers. While internships will be individualized, students will spend time connecting and learning with a cohort of their peers who are going through similar rural experiences.
Applications are due by November 24, 2024.
