Internship goals: How to land a spot at Land O'Lakes

Check out where Land O'Lakes, Inc. will be on campus to meet you for our open internships

It's officially Pumpkin Spice Latte (and Pumpkin Pie Spice Butter) season — which also means it's Fall Recruiting Season for Land O'Lakes! And applications are open for Summer 2026 internships. Here's a quick guide to what you need to know about internships at Land O'Lakes.

How to apply & what you’ll gain from our (award-winning) internships 

Our internships typically last 10–12 weeks. You can work in our Arden Hills, Minnesota, headquarters (in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area), or at one of over 100 locations nationwide. Many of these internships offer relocation assistance, too.

Our interns gain direct business and industry acumen, while developing professional skills.

We offer paid internships for undergraduate students and graduate students and also have full-time options for graduating students.

Our interns have opportunities to network across our company, to drive a hands-on business project over the summer and, most importantly, the chance to grow their skillsets for future career opportunities. That means you’ll get to gain direct business and industry acumen, develop professional skills and build your community. 

We offer paid internships for undergraduate students and graduate students and also have full-time options for graduating students. If you’ve got your resume all ready to go, you can apply to any of our open internships here.

We’re honored to be recognized as a winner of the Campus Forward RippleMatch Award for excellence in early career hiring, and in 2025, 100% of our interns said they would want to work full-time here following their internship.
