Halley says goodbye!
February 18th, 2010 by HalleyAfter more than two and half years, I am leaving NOCHE and NEOintern to join a medical equipment distributor as their director of marketing. I wanted to share with you how I found my new job, in the hopes that you will try something similar to find your internship, if you are struggling to find one.
NEOintern.net Students Doubled in 2009
February 5th, 2010 by HalleyNOCHE's 2009 Internship Market Research Study of students on the topic of internships revealed that students generally misunderstand or are unaware of internships and their relevance to professional growth, college financing, and post-graduation employment.
Chance to Network With Employers
November 25th, 2009 by HalleyIf you are looking for an internship in environmental sustainability, you should check out our networking event next Wednesday, December 2, from 4-6 pm. However - this is not an event where you just drop in. You must email me your resume ahead of time, because we will be making sure that you have a chance to talk to employers that are offering relevant internship opportunities for you. We want to make sure everyone maximizes the time they have by talking with the right people. If you are interested (and want to know where the event will be), please email me at hmarsh@noche.org. Hope to see you soon!
Environmental Sustainability Internships
November 9th, 2009 by HalleyThere is a lot of talk in the business community about “being green” (and I’m not talking about Kermit the Frog here) and “sustainability”. This is more than a passing fad, and most likely something that is important to a lot of you on a personal level, too. If you are interested in doing more to help the environment than recycling and taking your own reusable shopping bags to the grocery store, I have a suggestion. Consider using the skills you are learning in the classroom and applying them in an environmental sustainability internship.
Why Filling Out Surveys Is Good
September 25th, 2009 by HalleyEveryone gets asked to fill out more surveys than they ever would take the time to complete. But filling out surveys helps organizations, like NOCHE, to understand the needs of the marketplace and develop strategies to improve them.
In particular, right now we are conducting a survey on higher education in Northeast Ohio. By completing this survey, you are helping to make this region an even better place to live and learn. This is a great opportunity for Northeast Ohio, because we are fortunate enough to have all of the services needed to complete this market research donated to us (many thanks to Burges & Burges).
Please take a few minutes and to complete the survey, and pass this link on to your friends. Click here to get started.
