Every year, H&W employees look forward to returning to their alma maters to visit with students who are considering careers in construction. Our recruiting trips span the country and target students who are a strong culture fit and are pursuing degrees in everything from construction management to business.
Our strong reputation in the industry and within our H&W family results in our greatest recruiting and retention tool: employee referrals. Working with like-minded individuals leads to a higher level of career satisfaction. If your values and work ethic align with ours, we would love to have a conversation with you about opportunities to join our team.
“During my internship, the H&W team welcomed me and trusted me with responsibilities that expanded my experience more than any class could have. I never felt like I was just an intern, but more like a valued part of the team. The happy hours and team-building events also made it easy to connect with others on a personal level. Five years later, those same values still hold true.”
— Brett Heidelberg, John Brown University, 2019 Summer Intern
“I had the opportunity to do two internships with H&W before hiring on full-time. In my internship I was given the opportunity to discover different career paths that interested me. I got to be hands-on with projects and asked as many questions as possible to learn. I decided to hire on with H&W because of the work culture, career paths, and values. I saw H&W as a place where I could grow in my professional career.”
— Esperanza Santiago, University of Texas at Arlington, 2022 Summer Intern
“I have been a part of two internships at Hill & Wilkinson. Both were great experiences filled with knowledgeable superintendents who had a desire to teach and share their knowledge with me. I learned many things in the field and saw several diverse projects over the span of a couple months. As soon as I completed my first internship, I knew I wanted to call this place home. Hill & Wilkinson is a place that truly cares about each individual and their family. I am very grateful to have found a place like this. “
