INTERNSHIPS
In our commitment to the professional development of others, NMT offers various internship opportunities across all departments for students and upcoming professionals. We strive to provide our interns with a quality learning environment in order to help them acquire and develop the skills necessary for future job placement and advancement.
About our internships:
Unlike many internship programs, interns at NMT are given the opportunity to work on real tasks that will impact the business and allow the student to apply knowledge and concepts acquired during their education. Each intern is assigned a department and Manager. The reporting Manager is responsible for working with the intern to assign tasks and ensuring those tasks are completed in a satisfactory manner.
NMT interns are typically paid and arrangements may be made with the educational institution to receive course credits. Internships typically take place in the summer, however other options may be available based on location, need and by request. The time period usually lasts a minimum of 12 weeks.
