IMPORTANT: Career Exploration Day!
Career Exploration Day - Monday, March 23, 2026
Career Exploration Day will be your opportunity to meet staff from all the sites that will be hosting interns this summer. You will have the chance to ask staff questions and learn more about the opportunities they have to offer. At the end of CED, you will complete a survey that tells us your top sites that you are interested in interviewing. The list will then be shared with sites to invite some youth to interview in hopes of being selected for a Summer Internship. If you have a resume completed, you should plan to bring a few copies.
HOLD THE DATE:
Date: Monday, March 23rd, 2026.
Time: 3:30 PM-7 PM (Not required for the whole time – just enough time to connect with all the employers). In 2025, most applicants reported spending 60-90 minutes at the event.
