College internships posted on portal

The New Mexico Workforce Solutions and Higher Education departments Thursday announced a new internet portal to connect college students looking for internships with employers.

Proposed last year by Gov. Susana Martinez, the “Students Work” portal was built by Central New Mexico Community College students. The portal allows college students to browse opportunities and employers to browse potential candidates.

The portal is at www.dws. state.nm.us/Internships. Use is free and available to all New Mexico college students.
