It's a hallmark of NHS Global Events to be open to new ideas. It's how we continue to grow and mature as an organization.
We look at the hiring of interns as another outstanding opportunity to not only enhance a college student's educational experience, but for our employees to be exposed to fresh, new ideas.
According to Bill, who had some naive versions of what the business world was like as a young college graduate, one of our goals is to help our interns really see what the real world is like and set them up for success in their future career endeavors.
Melissa Swakow is one of our greatest internship success stories. She started with NHS Global Events as an intern and through hard work and dedication, she is now in a leadership position with the company.
To get a sense of what being an intern at NHS Global Events is like, we turn to Daniel Harris, our current intern who is a senior at Lake Forest College majoring in business and minoring in entrepreneurship and history.
"It's a wonderful environment and great business model," Daniel says of being part of the NHS Global Events team. "Everyone here is passionate about what they do. I was able to step up in a room full of professionals and work alongside them, and even impress them at times."
Daniel did that by running a staff meeting and working on key projects. "Getting the respect of professionals as a student is my greatest accomplishment while at NHS Global Events."
Daniel, who played defensive back on the Lake Forest football team, also felt great pride when some of his NHS Global Events co-workers came to his homecoming game to see the Foresters beat Ripon College, 51-29.
If you know of a college student looking for real-world experience in a supportive environment, they can learn more about our internship on our
