Why our internships matter.

Applying your educational experiences to a professional role can pave the way to a career and allow you to uncover your potential. As an intern, you’ll get the tools to be successful and learn new roles and responsibilities in a business or operations setting. You’ll work alongside mentors and industry experts who will help you grow personally and professionally, and you’ll be immersed, invested and an integral part of our team. Interns at Menasha Corporation get plenty of chances to explore career paths and make an impact in the workplace and in our communities through a variety of volunteer opportunities.

Headquartered in Wisconsin, interns join us from all over the country. Positions range from purchasing, supply chain, marketing and engineering to graphic design, structural design, and custom design co-ops.

Our local hiring managers and human resources representatives provide interns with a week-long orientation covering topics like safety and facility logistics, and you’ll be trained on our learning management system. Interns across the country are linked together through an interns-only, Microsoft Teams chat group where they can connect and share information.

We’re looking for passionate, curious people with excellent communication skills for our internships. If that description fits you, apply today.

What is the difference between an internship and a cooperative (co-op) education role?

An internship with Menasha Corporation typically begins in May and ends in August. Interns are required to participate in the Enterprise Internship Program and present a capstone project at the end of the summer. A student may or may not receive academic credit for performing the internship.

A co-op provides students with multiple, consecutive periods of work that’s related to the student’s major or career goal. Co-ops are typically six months in duration and designed for more technical positions in which there are longer periods to train students. Menasha Corporation typically recruits co-ops for the following positions: Structural Design, Graphic Design, and Custom Design (Engineering). Generally, students receive academic credit for co-op positions.

What is the duration of the internship program?

Our internship program typically runs 10-12 weeks in the summer but can last up to 12 months, depending on the position.

Are internships and co-ops paid or unpaid?

Our internships and co-ops are paid. We want to ensure that our interns have the resources they need to thrive. We look at multiple factors when determining pay associated with interns, including location and major.

When are internship positions posted to the careers page?

Our internship positions are typically posted on our careers page in September until they are filled.

What types of internships or co-ops do you offer?

Our internship opportunities typically include all our functions, such as Supply Chain, Engineering, Procurement, Marketing, Human Resources, and Product Management.

Our co-op opportunities include Structural Design, Graphic Design and Custom Design (Engineering).

What kind of training and onboarding will be provided?

Local hiring managers and human resources representatives will work with you to help acclimate you to your new position and our company. You’ll be assigned a mentor and receive ongoing, job-specific training so you’re fully prepared and have all the resources you need.
