Brookes Publishing, a scholarly publishing company in Towson (just north of Baltimore), has a new opportunity and immediate need for a paid Web Intern to assist with a number of website projects. Brookes publishes highly respected books and other resources in early childhood, early intervention, inclusive and special education, developmental disabilities, learning disabilities, literacy, communication and language, behavior, and mental health. Our titles range from graduate level textbooks, professional references, and practical handbooks to curricula, assessment tools, and family guidebooks and videos. We're proud of our company's independence and long commitment to delivering high quality content to human services professionals. Applicants can visit www.brookespublishing.com to learn more about our company.

Intern pay starts at $8.00 an hour, the M-F hours are flexible up to 20 hrs a week, and we also will structure internships for credit.

This new hand-on project focused internship requires a mix of early design and web programming skills, and keen attention to detail. We are hoping to fill the position as soon as possible. We know we will need the intern through the end of May (or spring semester) and expect that the position could extend through the summer.

To apply to this position, see below the jump!

Have you found the internship or research position of your dreams on your own, but just don't know how to get credit for it this spring semester? Do you want a notation on your transcript for all your hard work, but are unsure how to proceed?

Well look no further! The staff at the UMBC Shriver Center is here to help!

That internship you found is important to obtain admission to graduate school and to find employment after graduation. You gain experience, can get paid, and could potentially obtain three upper level credits, all by interning only 8 to 10 hours per week.

Best of all, if you found an internship, co-op, or research position on your own for the spring, you can get the notation on your transcript (FREE OF CHARGE) - and be on your way to possibly receiving credit- its not too late. That's right, the deadline to add the intern notation or obtain credit for the spring semester is in two weeks.

IN ORDER TO GET YOUR INTERNSHIP/CO-OP/RESEARCH POSITION TO BE ADDED TO YOUR TRANSCRIPT:

1. Either call (410-455-2493) or stop by the Shriver Center on the ground floor of the Public Policy Building to make an appointment with a Coordinator.
2. Get a letter/memo from your employer (on company letterhead) verifying that you are interning 8-10 hours per week and bring it to your appointment.
3. Meet with your Coordinator to get enrolled in the Practicum (to have the notation put on your transcript as a university sanctioned experience) and have your potential credit options explained to you.
4. Enjoy your internship, co-op, or research position!

If you do not already have an internship lined up but are interested in obtaining one, we’ll be glad to help you with that as well. To begin the process of finding an internship through the Shriver Center and UMBCworks, visit http://www.shrivercenter.org/documents/Shriver%20Center%20Four%20Step%20Process.pdf That link will detail exactly what you need to do.

Are you dreading that Thanksgiving conversation?

You know, the one that goes something like:

Family-member: So, what are you going to do next summer?

You: I don't know, probably the same thing I did last year.

Family Member: Well, with all the news about the economy, I don't think it's smart to put all your eggs in one basket. And you know you can't mooch off of us another year.

You: Stop bugging me! I just don't know where to begin!

And an awkward silence fills the room, ruining your delicious pumpkin pie.

Wouldn't you rather be able to say...

You: Well, I met with my Shriver Center coordinator and they helped me get my resume in good shape. They also showed me how to use UMBCworks to apply to positions. I have two offers already from Fortune 500 companies and I'm interviewing with 3 other organizations over winter break. While I haven't made up my mind yet, I have a lot of good choices. The economy may be down, but there is still a strong market for interns and I know I'm going to have a good experience that may even set me up for a fulltime job after graduation.

Call 410-455-2493 to make an appointment with the Shriver Center TODAY to start your path to a successful spring or summer internship and avoid Thanksgiving awkwardness.
