ABG Externship Program - Winter 2016 Cycle

Career Advancement is excited to once again offer the ABG Externship Program during the winter break this year. The externship program is a wonderful opportunity to:
  • Explore your interest in an industry you don't know much about
  • Learn more about the industry you have always been interested in
  • Engage with UChicago alumni and other professionals in the field of your choice
  • Jumpstart your networking for potential internship or hiring placements
Past externship hosts have included: Facebook, Morningstar, Mayo Clinic, Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, United States Environmental Protection Agency, J.P. Morgan Chase, and more!

All costs related to the externship must be covered by the student, including but not limited to housing, transportation, and meals. If this poses a financial burden, we recommend indicating your home city as a location preference. If you live on-campus and would like to remain in Chicago over the break please contact College Housing.

WANT TO APPLY?

To apply for this opportunity, please submit a resume and cover letter by October 16th via UChicago Handshake and fill out the questionnaire found here. Applications will not be considered or matched with employers until all application materials including the questionnaire have been received. Space is limited so submit your applications now!

You cover letter should address the following:
  • Your interest in the externship program and what you hope to get out of it
  • Why you would like to extern in a specific industry and what about that industry interests or excites you
  • Any experience you may have with your preferred industry
Placements will begin being offered after all applications are received. Final placement at an externship is decided based on your application materials by the employer who has agreed to host an extern. You will only receive one externship offer so if you decline an externship offer you will be removed from the applicant pool for the Winter 2016 cycle.
