Northwestern Mutual Financial Network
Northwestern Mutual Financial Network is holding information sessions in their Providence office for Fall internships. CCB and UMD have had a track record with NMFN. This is not for everyone but if you have an interest in finance, investing, insurance, personal financial planning and can combine that with strong selling skills, this could be a great start - even for graduates of last May who haven't yet landed a full-time gig. Here's the dates and other details from an email that I received from NMFN earlier today.
Thursday, June 25th @ 1:30 p.m.
Friday, June 26th @ 10:00 am

Hasbro IT Internship
CHANGE: THIS IS NOW A 4-6 Week assignment. See more recent blog post for more details.
I was just notified by my contact at Hasbro that they are looking for an IT internship. This is a great opportunity. This pays $17.50 per hour and is full-time for the summer. In my opinion, this could be filled by a sharp MIS major. But there may be other business majors with these skills so I have blasted the announcement out to all majors. Please respond with a cover letter and resume to the contact person. I suggest if you are interested, apply as soon as possible.
