Internships
The BNSF Logistics Internship program gives college students practical, on-the-job experience in a business environment. The time spent as an intern lets the student evaluate BNSF Logistics for future employment, just as it lets BNSF Logistics evaluate the intern as a future employee. During internship, a student receives evaluations based on his or her performance and overall contribution to the organization. BNSF Logistics uses these evaluations as a basis for future hiring consideration.
Internship Candidates
Candidates for internships are typically full-time students currently enrolled at a college or university who are pursuing an undergraduate or a graduate degree in a field of study that supports BNSF Logistics business objectives.
BNSF Logistics recruits candidates from college campuses, minority student referral programs, the Internet, employee referrals, and unsolicited resumes.
