Visit the MCAA GreatFutures Universities page to browse student chapters and to view contact information for faculty advisors or to note the sponsoring local MCAA affiliated association.
Reach out to the faculty advisor and the local association executive when looking to hire interns for the school year. These two resources typically work together to keep a pulse on which students still need internships and if they are interested in any specific or specialized part of our industry. Let them know that your company is looking to recruit new talent and keep your eyes and ears open for additional opportunities to say hello. Connections can happen anywhere, not just during the school’s annual career fair! Consider attending the chapter fundraisers, social outings or community service events and easily walk away with contact information for a handful of potential new hires.
Internship Grants
2024 Internship Grants are $1,000 for 1 intern, or $2,000 for 2 or more interns. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, but must be submitted no later than January 31, 2025 for all 2024 grants.
Once you officially hire an intern, be sure to submit a Part 1 Internship Grant.
Once you convert an intern from your Part 1 list to a full-time new hire, make sure you submit a Part 2 Internship Grant.
For companies successfully converting an intern from their Part 1 list to a full-time new hire, a $500 gift card will be mailed to the company to present to their new hire. New hire conversions are unlimited, but the name must be included on a Part 1 list from an MCAA member company. Part 2 applications may not be submitted until after the full-time start date and must be submitted no later than January 31, 2025 for all 2024 grants.
MCAA thanks the John R. Gentille Foundation for its support in underwriting many of the activities of the MCAA Career Development Initiative. Chief among these is an internship program that allows mechanical contractors to identify and evaluate potential full-time hires for their companies.
