General Internship Information

  • Internships at UWGLV are available in most of our business areas year-round.  We are highly flexible with start and end dates for internships.
  • Will work on projects that go beyond that which the organization expected to accomplish with regular employees and which are not core to the achievement of the organization’s mission.
  • An intern is expected to get as much from the work experience at UWGLV as UWGLV gets from the intern.  The supervisor of an intern anticipates a “break-even” exchange of time invested in mentoring the intern versus work product contributed to the organization.
  • It is not the purpose or intention of this program to allow prospective employees to “work for free” to demonstrate their skill set or prove their suitability for employment. 
  • May serve as an intern for no more than 1 year or no more than 950 hours.
