Internships have become a very important tool in providing practical work experience, which may facilitate finding a permanent job in all industries after graduation. More than 89 percent of U.S. college seniors graduating in 2004 had completed at least one internship by graduation time, while over 70 percent have interned two or more times.
In an effort to help our students, we have a database of internships in the United States for which we match potential interns, based on their expertise and professional interests. Depending on the field of study, some of the internships offer a stipend to help with expenses.
AMLN screens all potential interns by conducting the initial interview and securing all the necessary documentation. If you are interested in an internship, and would like us to start the matching process, please complete and submit the following form, and mail it to us with your resume, cover letter and two letters of reference
