PORTLAND, Maine--Tilson, a national network development and information infrastructure professional services firm, has opened the application period for its 2022 summer internship program as it continues to meet the demands of customers in the rapidly growing wireless and fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) sectors. The broadband expansion program is designed to offer students and SkillBridge interns an opportunity to work on impactful infrastructure projects that will provide high-speed broadband services to homes, schools, and businesses in their communities. Applications for both opportunities are now live on Tilson's website.
"Tilson's Broadband Expansion Internship Program is a unique opportunity that will provide participants with a hands-on experience building America's information infrastructure," said Joshua Broder, Tilson CEO. "Not everyone wants to work behind a desk. We're excited to offer an internship-to-career path experience in telecommunications where students and transitioning military can learn new skills, earn certifications, work in the field and directly contribute to their communities."
Tilson has expanded its outside plant capabilities to include self-performance capabilities in aerial and underground construction. As part of the program, Tilson interns are paired with industry mentors, work on real-time internal or client-facing projects and are exposed to state-of-the-art equipment, facilities, and processes. Participants will directly support Tilson's current Outside Plant FTTH projects in Appleton, Oshkosh, and Green Bay, Wisconsin, Phoenix, Arizona and Jerome and Twin Falls, Idaho and will assist construction crews placing fiber underground providing better broadband service for residents and businesses.
