Welcome 2009 E-NET Interns


How the E-Net Internship Experience Works

The E-Net Internship Experience is an internship program that helps you not only find a paid internship gaining experience, but also provides you access to an internship mentor. Your internship mentor will help you land an internship for the summer, develop a portfolio, network with peers and other employers, and help you get the most out of your internship experience.

To take advantage of this opportunity, send your resume to Kerri Brown at kbrown@chautauquaworks.com. If you have any questions, please e-mail Kerri at the address above or call 716-487-5175.

You can also use this blog to search for internship opportunities in Chautauqua County. Search the postings to find an internship that matches your interest. Each posting lists the employer, internship description, and how to apply for that internship. Check back often as internships will continue to be added. You can also sign up to receive e-mail updates or use the feeder feature.
