Technical Sales Internship & Co-op (Paper Specialty Chemicals)
We view an Internship program as a beneficial way to evaluate and recruit full-time talent. These programs give interns hands-on experience to understand Axchem, the chemical supply sector, and the paper industry as a whole. Internships/co-ops give Axchem time to recognize the skills and future capabilities of young professionals. Interns will be assigned challenging projects, with mentor support, to develop technical and professional skills. A capstone project will be presented at the conclusion of the internship.
