Job Search Tools

When you search for jobs, change your key words and use:

1. Tools
2. Skills
3. Titles (use Intern or Co-op in the title)
4. Don't forget to put in your location.

Obtaining a Mico-Internship:

1. Be very persistent. You will most likely not get hired on your first try. Remember you are competing with other schools. 
2. Check the site frequently. Micro-Internships are added daily. 
3. Stay on top of your nku.edu email address; you do not want to miss an email asking for an interview. 
4. Keep your application updated; keep your skills up-to-date as well.
