Barriere Construction Company's Summer Internship Program began approximately 10 years ago and has proven to be a useful, powerful, and successful recruiting tool helping us to find the brightest young talent to bring fresh and innovative new ideas to Barriere. Successful candidates will work as Field Engineers for the summer; therefore the overall – more... goal of the program is to recruit the best of the best Civil Engineering, Construction Management, and/or Industrial and Construction Engineering Technology students each year with the hope of retaining them for full-time positions with Barriere. The program also seeks to create a remarkable and unparalleled learning experience for students, so that they will think enthusiastically about the highway/heavy construction industry. Each summer, we strive to ensure that students experience the benefits of working for a 21st Century Construction Company, where they can gain valuable hands-on experience, working directly with Project Managers in the office and Field Engineers, Superintendents, and Foremen in the field. We sincerely hope that our efforts will create a pipeline for the best of the best to join Barriere upon graduation and keep Barriere supervisors in touch with the new generation of workers by providing a superior group of candidates to preview each year. Our recruiting efforts usually begin in the fall by sending program information to all the local and statewide colleges and universities. We send flyers and brochures and ask the Department Heads and/or Career Services offices to post these in their departments and around campus in conspicuous places so that students will see them. We also send this information out to various organizations such as the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC), the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA), and Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC), just to name a few, so that they can help spread the word to their members. Each fall and spring, the schools host career fairs and we try to attend as many as possible. – less – More from ZoomInfo »
