Internship Co-op Posting Guidelines
Employers with job opportunities that qualify for Co-op should contact our co-op office or call 992-2964. Paid Co-op Internships must pay a guaranteed hourly wage or salary that is not based on a minimum deliverable of sales or performance. It must pay at least $8.55 per hour (WA state minimum wage guidelines). Employers are required to have a current business license to post a job or internship with us. To help clarify, we do not accept the following jobs and internships:
- Multi-level marketing opportunities
- Commission-only jobs
- Opportunities that require any equipment or products to be purchased by the prospective employee in order to earn their wage. This is true prior to being hired, after the employment offer and after employment has commenced.
- Opportunities that charge for any training that is required prior to employment. Required training must also pay an hourly wage to the prospective employee.
We do require that you provide a safe environment for your employees, are an Equal Opportunity Employer, and comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Right of Refusal
We reserve the right to refuse service if an organization has any unresolved investigations, complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau, or for any other valid reasons.
Screening Applicants
We do not personally interview or screen applicants for you, nor do we make personal recommendations. You are encouraged to use good judgment in hiring a student or job seeker. We strongly encourage you to check references and inquire about criminal history, if any. You may have a criminal background check of the applicant done through the Washington State Patrol for a charge if you have any concerns.
