Founded a decade ago, we’ve grown into one ofthe nation’s leading project controls companies, with locations on the East and West Coast to best serve clientsacross the country. A day shadowing at Aegis provides a unique opportunity for a student to see construction fromthe ground up, if you will.

They will see what a schedule for a large scale project like the National Museum ofAfrican American History and Culture looks like and how a massive, multi-million dollar project of such is completedon time and on budget.

Interested in engineering majors; freshmen, sophomores, juniors, seniors welcome Best days to shadow: Mondays-Fridays; Available during winter break Site is metro accessibleAflac, Aflac.comIndustry: Insurance(Can be near campus or area where they live – Central MD to Washington County)Aflac has been named one of the World's Most Ethical Companies for a number of years by Ethisphere Magazine.We are the world's leader in Supplemental Insurance. We also offer "One Day Pay" on benefits, something no otherinsurance company can come close to offering. Aflac's policies are meant to cover out of pocket expenses we allincur when sick or hurt, that regular medical insurance does not cover. For someone with a cancer diagnosis or heartrelated issue, these expenses can run into tens of thousands of dollars and are why medical expenses are the causefor over half ot the individual bankruptcies in this country. Most Aflac policies are sold by businesses making themavailable to employees, but less than 10% of businesses offer them. As a benefits consultant, we contact businessesand inform the owners/HR Directors about Aflac and how they can improve their hiring and retaining of employees byoffering Aflac as an extension to their benefits package. In this shadowing experience, I first go over just what Aflacoffers, and then try to do some cold calling on businesses to introduce Aflac to them, and to find who would be thecorrect contact person at that business. For the Intern-For-A-Day, Aflac can be a career possibility. It takes work ethicto succeed. My first District Coordinator, the Regional Coordinator and State Market Director all began as interns atAflac, and earn from 200,000 to near seven figures. All based on their work ethic! It's not for everyone, but it can bea tremendous opportunity that most in school are not aware of. Anyone interested can benefit, but especially can bevaluable to someone who is a business/marketing major.
