Hot Jobs #15

My apologies for not getting these up on Wednesday, but after the Thanksgiving holiday, our system wasn’t quite updated with current listings.

Today, I am ready to bring you three great opportunities, all of which were uploaded to the JobMonkey free job database yesterday — so these gigs are fresh and ready for you to pick!  (Sorry for the fruit harvesting metaphors, don’t know what got into me 😉

Today I have not one, but two great student internships — the first with Nike (how cool!) and the second with AT&T.  If you are in college or a recent grad, take a look at both of these and keep your mind open to the wonderful possibilities that can come from a quality internship experience.   I’ve also got a great opportunity for a mechanical engineer in Illinois – who says engineers can’t find a job in this economy?

If none of these great job and internship opportunities float your boat, please head on over to theJobMonkey job board and run your own search.  Our listings are updated several times a week and you can search and apply for any job for FREE!
