It’s Prime Time to Hire – Post to the MCAA GreatFutures Job Board to Attract Fresh New Talent

September 18, 2025

Students are back on campus and looking for opportunities to further their classroom education with hands-on learning. Now is the prime time to get their attention for summer internship positions before the on-campus career fairs start up. Yes, your company should already be thinking about summer interns (and full-time new hires) if you want your pick of top talent.

Posting to the MCAA GreatFutures Job Board is a quick and easy way to attract fresh new talent. The job board was created to highlight entry level (no experience required) positions in the mechanical contracting industry and is a complimentary resource for MCAA Members.   

How to Post an Entry-Level Job or Internship

  1.  Login with an MCAA username and password. 
  2.  Click on the job board within the Career Development page. 
  3.  Click Manage My Jobs and Add a Job to create your posting.
  • Jobs remain active for 1 month to ensure postings stay fresh.
  • When the job is set to expire, a reminder will be sent for you to either “mark as filled” or “duplicate” and repost for another month.
  • Interested students can view postings and submit their contact information and resume. 
  1. Your office will be notified via email when interested students submit their resume. 
  2.  From there, your office is encouraged to continue with your company’s application and interview process. 

New jobs are highlighted every two weeks on the mcaagreatfutures Instagram page.
