Alaska

The Last Frontier's motto is "North to the Future," and it is by far the most northern state of the country.  The capital is Juneau but the largest city is Anchorage.  Purchased from the Russians, Alaska's primary industry is petroleum, which contributes more than 80% of the state's revenues.  Manufacturing and government are also other important players in the state's economy.  A transportation sector also exists with notable corporations as Being Air, Era Aviation and PenAir.

Alaska has the largest area of any state and a number of opportunities to go along with that characteristic.  InternZoo lists internships and provides internship advice with tips for writing a stellar résumé and using the interview as a time to show off your talents rather than having it an obstacle to your internship.

Having an internship is extremely helpful for students' learning purposes, but also helpful for employers who require or desire a student with prior working experience and knowledge of the industry.  In other words, get moving and check out all of the opportunities in the ‘Zoo!
