Last year, the American Association of Meat Processors (AAMP) launched an internship program last year to provide opportunities for students and recent graduates to gain additional knowledge and experience in the meat industry.
Several students have successfully completed internships with some of AAMP’s processor members. Both internship and full-time job opportunities are available at local AAMP member businesses across the country, according to Nelson Gaydos, AAMP’s outreach specialist. Gaydos, who oversees program, is currently gathering the names of both students and processors interested in participating.
