Employment Assistance

The Career Services Department will assist students in locating and securing part-time, freelance, and field-related employment at no additional charge to the student. While The Art Institute of Michigan provides placement assistance, it does not guarantee employment.

Part-Time Employment and Internship Support

Career Services has a network of local companies that depend on students as part-time workers. These companies attend school-sponsored part-time job fairs and recruit the talented and trustworthy students of The Art Institute of Michigan. As students progress in their programs, they will be ready to apply for industry part-time work. Career Services can help students get that first taste of the industry through industry contacts and matching your skills with employer needs.

As students near graduation, Career Services can assist students in finding an internship in their field of study. Some programs require an internship as a component of students’ studies, some do not. But whether it is required or not, an internship is an excellent opportunity to put the skills learned in class into action. Career Services has an extensive database of industry contacts to help students find an internship that fits their needs. Career Services will also give students tips and tools to guide them through the process. An internship can be a tremendous learning experience that paves the way for an entry-level position in the field.
