Intern for a Day
February 22, 2008
Intern
for a day is a job shadowing program
put on by PAID as another way to
link students to industry. This is
a perfect opportunity for students
to see what an employer’s daily
actives would consist of and to meet
executives within the company.
There are many companies
participating this year from a
variety of industries. The majority
of companies are request students to
visit locations in the Dallas,
Houston, and San Antonio. The day
usually lasts from 10am – 3pm. We
will arrange a carpool within the
groups, and the driver will be
reimbursed for mileage by the
sponsoring company.
Due to
company specifications we are having
students sign up for their top three
choices. There are only 35 spots
available and over 407 students in
PAID. So don’t miss your chance to
be apart of this great recruiting
opportunity.
We
will contact participants with
further information no later than
Tuesday, February 19, 2007.
Sign-ups will continue until Tuesday
at 5:00 PM.
Thanks!

a company whose value has come of

how keenly our cities - and the

lies in rebuilding not only the
systems, but the confidence, to
thrive. For more than 50 years,
Powell has designed, developed,
manufactured and serviced equipment
integral to the distribution and
control of electrical energy and
other critical processes. Our
customers include utilities,
refineries, municipalities, energy
companies and heavy industry. While
the process managed by our equipment
may vary - electricity, water,
wastewater, traffic, commuter trains
or natural gas - our approach does
not. Our focus is on engineered
solutions that are safe, secure, and
clean. And reliable.
Now, as ever, Powell understands the
significance of our work and of the
responsibilities that lie ahead.
