Paid Internship - Management Training Program

1st Day School Supplies the nation’s fastest-growing school supply company and one of Ohio's fastest-growing companies is looking for college students (or any hard-working person) to be part of their nationally recognized and elite management training internship program. This is an incredible opportunity for college or graduate students to gain a one-of-a-kind job opportunity in the summer of 2022. Depending on the candidate and the position we will pay up to $16 per hour and guarantee at least 40 hour work weeks along with 10 to 15 hours of overtime. You will earn more money and gain more experience than any other job opportunity. This year we will be issuing scholarship money to summer associates who qualify for our Best In The World Scholarship Fund!!!! (YOU MUST INCLUDE A COVER LETTER TO BE CONSIDERED)

Many of our summer associates have used their time with us as a business internship and/or used their experience with us to build their resumes to get a job once they graduate. A large number of our associates are studying science, technology, engineering, and math. This could be a great transitional job for college graduates looking for a full-time job. Responsibilities will include accurately picking and packing supplies, managing a group of your peers as a team leader, and measuring and monitoring quality. Unlike most summer jobs, you will actually be empowered to make decisions and manage people.

We are looking for sincere, hard-working individuals who are competitive and have a history of results in and out of the classroom. Most of our candidates excel in athletics, academics, or in extracurricular activities. We have had multiple high school state champions, NCAA qualifiers, and NCAA All American's work for us along with those who excel in marching band, choir, musicals as well as Eagle Scouts. Our average GPA for an associate last year was over 3.8, six had a perfect 4.0 and one got a perfect 36 on their ACT. Last year alone 31 of our summer associates scored over 30 on their ACT.

To be clear, you don’t have to be an athlete or an honor student but you must have proof you have gone above and beyond in some aspect of your life. You work hard for us and we will take good care of you…Including providing you with a stocked refrigerator, multiple catered meals per week, and contests to earn additional bonus money. Every Friday we cater lunch and have guest speakers who are leaders in the community. In the past, we have had executives from Cavs, Indians as well as the Chief Medical Officer from Akron Children's Hospital, a bank president's and pro football players.

We also provide job placement and career networking services where we help you find a job after you graduate. We are looking for candidates who are willing to get their hands dirty and help out in all phases of the business…no matter what. Candidates must be extremely detailed, competitive yet team players and demonstrate a work ethic. 1st Day School Supplies provides an awesome culture and work environment where you can excel, grow and learn. We provide our candidates support for job placement after they work for us.

We have an impressive group of alumni including doctors, lawyers, accountants, consultants, and engineers. Two of our associates work on Capitol Hill as staffers. (PLEASE INCLUDE A COMPELLING COVER LETTER TO BE CONSIDERED)

Qualified candidates can send resumes and a brief cover letter that explains why they would be a good fit for this job...Please make sure you have a cover letter explaining why you are a good fit. We are starting the interview process in December for the summer of 2022.
