The goal: to help make our Yard & Delivery operations best-in-class within our market.   INTERNSHIP OBJECTIVE To gain a fresh, analytical perspective on our daily operations and discover improvement opportunities that may go unnoticed due to familiarity with existing processes. The intern will collaborate across the team to evaluate, document, and recommend enhancements that increase accuracy, efficiency, and team productivity.   KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Operational Immersion: Work alongside the dispatcher and yard foreman to understand daily workflows, from load building to truck dispatch and material delivery. Process Evaluation: Review and analyze existing Yard & Delivery processes, identifying inefficiencies, potential risks, and improvement opportunities. Error Prevention & Efficiency: Develop recommendations to eliminate load-building errors and catch issues early—before trucks are loaded or materials leave the yard. Documentation & Reporting: Record findings, summarize observations, and propose actionable solutions in collaboration with the operations team. Collaboration & Communication: Participate in regular check-ins and feedback sessions with the manager and market leadership team to ensure progress and alignment.

GPA of 3.0 or higher; juniors and seniors strongly encouraged to apply. Strong communication, analytical, and problem-solving skills. Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, Outlook). Enthusiastic, detail-oriented, and eager to learn in a hands-on, field environment.

  WORK ENVIRONMENT / PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

Work will take place in a combination of office and yard settings. Position will involve standing, walking, and observing field operations. Occasionally required to lift or move materials of 25 pounds or greater.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
