Subject: Assessment center internships
The IU Northwest Assessment Center is recruiting
interns and raters for the 2013-2014 academic year.
IU Northwest instituted an Assessment Center process in 2006 and the response has been tremendous. We have had over 1000 students complete the process and recently
expanded to our MBA program. Our Assessment Center is different from most academic based programs in a couple of ways. First, although MBA students do complete the AC, our primary focus is on the undergraduate level rather than on graduate students. We do
this because we want students to begin developing these skills as soon in their careers as possible. Second, our entire process for rating students is online. This online format provides great flexibility and allows us to provide several opportunities to Industrial-Organizational
Psychology graduate students.
1.
Traditional internships - Students come and work at the Assessment Center. They help run the sessions, including participating as an actor, and rate students. In addition, they help with day-to-day issues that arise and help with fine- tuning and expanding
our program. These interns work 10-20 hours per week and must be available on Fridays and Saturdays. Opportunities are limited for this paid internship.
2.
Virtual internships - Students complete their internship online. They rate students and help with preparing materials for expansion of our program. They also complete a project, which allows them to explore the assessment center methodology more completely.
These interns are invited to come to campus to help run the sessions, but are not required to do so. These interns receive a nominal fee at the end of the semester for each file rated.
3.
Virtual Rater – Students who want to gain experience in assessing performance using the assessment center methodology but do not want to complete a formal internship are invited to become a rater rather than an intern. Raters receive a nominal fee at
the end of the semester for each file rated.
REQUIREMENTS

Please feel free to forward this information to students, faculty, and other I/O programs as you see fit. Thank you!
