Internships – All Locations, IL


The goal of our internship program is to provide you with a “hands-on” experience in the tree and plant health care field. During the internship, you will have the opportunity to experience all aspects of how a full service tree and plant health care company operates.

You will receive the experience of what it means to be involved in running an award-winning company in several of the nation’s most exciting business markets: New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Washington, D.C. This program will provide you with a well-rounded perspective of our company.

As an intern at The Care of Trees, you decide how you would like to set up your program. There are a variety of options to choose from:

Option 1 – Rotating Program

This internship option is recommended for students who have not had previous internship experience. Students will sample the following:

  • Minimum of 2 weeks with a general tree work crew
  • Minimum of 2 weeks with our Plant Health Care crew
  • Minimum of 2 days with salesperson/arborist
  • Minimum of 2 days in the office
  • Minimum of 1 day with management
  • Company training seminars

Option 2 – Customized Program

This internship is recommended for students who have previous work or internship experience and wish to focus on a particular segment of interest. Students will spend the majority of their internship in one particular division, but will also have the opportunity to gain some experience in other divisions.

Option 3 – School Structured Program

This program is designed to assist students in following the criteria required by their schools. All students will also have the opportunity to be involved in various projects related to the areas of their interest throughout the internship.
