Benefits
Internships with Silver Spur Ranches are highly competitive.
Preference will be given to applicants pursuing careers or advanced degrees in agriculture-related fields.
Applications for the 2025 internship program are now closed.
The application deadline for all internships was November 1, 2024. To be considered for future opportunities, please submit your resume and completed online application by the deadline. Incomplete applications or those submitted after the deadline will not be reviewed. Please note, spots for 2025 internships are extremely limited.
This is a paid, minimum 10-week internship offering $1,000/month plus housing. Housing is fully furnished, but interns are responsible for linens (sheets, towels, pillows, etc.) and food. Interns will likely share housing with other interns at most locations.
Teleconference interviews will be conducted in January and February. Applicants who perform well during the initial interview may be invited for a second interview in Encampment, Wyoming, scheduled for March or April, typically coinciding with spring break. Travel to Wyoming for this second interview is mandatory—if you are unable or unwilling to travel, please do not apply. Please also be aware that travel to Wyoming does not guarantee placement at this location, as you may be assigned to any of our other locations in Colorado, New Mexico, or Nebraska. We do not offer travel stipends for the interview.
