The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association is offering college students a unique behind-the-scenes experience at its annual convention internship program. The 2022 Cattle Industry Convention and NCBA Trade Show, the largest annual meeting of the U.S. beef cattle industry, will be in early February in Houston. Up to 18 interns will get selected and be responsible for setting up the indoor arena, assisting at committee meetings and Cattlemen’s’ College, posting on social media, and contributing in the NCBA booth. NCBA will also make sure the interns have adequate time to maximize their industry networking opportunities.

Interns have to be available to work January 29th-February 5th, 2022, provide their own transportation to Houston, and be at least a junior in college at an accredited university at the time of the event. Applicants need a 3.0 GPA, should be well-versed in all areas of social media, and preferably have a background in or working knowledge of the cattle and/or beef industry. Students need to complete an online Student Internship Application and submit college transcripts, two letters of recommendation, and a resume.

The deadline to apply is October 16th.
