Human Resources Intern

Belden’s HR Internship offers current students an opportunity to work on important business projects, collaborate with experienced managers and deliver real results for the organization. Over 12 weeks during the summer (May - August), you will gain hands-on experience creating real business solutions while developing project management skills, interpersonal skills, and field-specific knowledge.  

As a member of our 2026 Internship Program, you’ll be fully immersed with a global team of HR experts eager to teach and learn from you along the way. These fast-paced, project-based internship positions are ideal for students who are interested in developing themselves personally, while also making a substantial contribution to the company. You’ll work towards goals, deliver results, and present to business leaders.
