INTERNSHIP CONNECTOR

Our New Program


The COVID-19 pandemic has affected both businesses and students in unprecedented ways. Our new program, the Internship Connector, aims to help your business find the help it needs, while providing local students with resume-building internship experience.


The goal of the Internship Connector Platform is to help
connect students at the Bronx Chamber's member colleges to internship opportunities with member businesses. The Chamber serves as a “hub” where internship postings, job fairs & other events are made easily accessible for our members via our website. See below for more details!

FAQ's

How will my internship posting reach students?

  • We will post available internships on our website and send them directly to Chamber member colleges to promote to their students. 

What colleges will my internship posting be sent to?

  • We will send each posting to all of our Chamber member colleges and universities.

How will the interns be compensated?

  • Interns can work through Federal Work-Study, for college credit, or for a stipend provided by the business.

How are students onboarded through Federal Work-Study?

  • The prospective intern must direct this process through the Financial Aid, Student Employment and/or other applicable department(s) of the college/university they attend; the process may differ from campus to campus. Once onboarded, the student will be told the date they may begin to work. Their internship supervisor will be responsible for reviewing and approving time sheets every 2 weeks, in order for the student to get paid. *Please note: each college or university has its own policies regarding off-campus internships funded via Work-Study. Businesses seeking interns may need to coordinate with Student Employment representatives to finalize arrangements.
