Turning an internship into a Career

Having just celebrated my one-year anniversary of full time employment at The Hagerman Group, I started to reflect on three summer internship experiences I was offered with The Hagerman Group.  As a requirement for my Construction Engineering Management degree, I worked three summers in three different positions Hagerman.

I strongly recommend and encourage students to work as an intern during college. Learning your future craft sure beats trimming bushes or pumping gas during the summer and provide young professionals with valuable experience and perspective that cannot be learned in any classroom or lab.

Internships not only provide invaluable work experience and industry contacts, but you might even come out of it with a great new story or two and a few new friends.  You might even get lucky like I did and end up with a great full time job after college.
