Employment/ Internships;
If you want to hire college graduates at the BS, MS or PhD level, contact me and I may be able to find the right person. We also have students wanting to do summer internships in the food processing business. An internship allows a student to work for a food processor for several months giving them a taste of the world beyond their degree program while earning some much needed money for the semester. For food processors, it offers the opportunity to have additional help during the summer months when regular employees want vacation time. For more information, go to;
