HR Intern: Focus in Training Development
Summer 2026 HR Internship: Training & Onboarding Design Focus
Location: Pontiac, Michigan
Industry: Construction Management
Duration: Late Spring/Summer 2026 (Approx. 10–14 weeks)
Are you an HR student with a passion specifically for training and onboarding? Maybe you even are minoring in instructional design? Are you looking for the opportunity to apply what you've learned and make a meaningful impact in a fast-paced and ever growing construction company that has a coaching and training first mentality?
We're excited to offer a Summer 2026 Internship that’s more than just a resume builder. This role is ideal for someone who wants to build the framework of impactful HR programs that enhances employees’ experience of onboarding and learning from day one.
What You'll Do
By the time you join us, key tools like our training catalog, skills heat map, and digital quarterly review process will already be live. Your mission? Use these foundational tools to help design a high-level program tailoring onboarding with our training capabilities that are also aligned with:
- Best practices in employee engagement and retention
- Role-specific skill progression
- Our company culture and operational needs
This program won't launch during your internship, but your work will directly shape what gets built and how. You’ll work closely with the HR Director and have visibility into how people strategies are implemented in a real-world, operational environment.
What We're Looking For
- Candidate is currently a Junior and/or Senior that is pursuing a degree in Human Resources, Organizational Psychology and/or Instructional Design
- Strong interest (or minor) in instructional design, training & development, or learning strategy
- Ability to translate data and frameworks into actionable recommendations
- Curious mindset, organized thinking, and a collaborative spirit
Why Construction? Why Us?
Construction is a people-driven industry where skilled people, safety, and continuous learning are everything. This is a unique chance to see how HR is both a support function AND strategic partner in building teams that build the future.
You won’t just be "shadowing" you’ll be actively contributing, learning, and helping us elevate the employee journey.
If this sounds like the kind of challenge you're looking for, we’d love to hear from you.
