FIU MISSION 100

Compass Group is dedicated to helping Panthers find their path with Compass Group. In addition to hiring students for on-campus opportunities and internships around the country, we are focused on placing at least 100 FIU students and new grads into salaried, benefits-eligible roles throughout the country each year!

We have a dedicated Compass ambassador on campus to help you find your perfect fit with Compass. We’re a family of incredible companies, and we want to offer you an incredible career for life!

Compass Group offers the opportunities and benefits of a very large corporate company, but with a family feel and the potential to run your own little "business within the business." As a full-time employee, not only will you have access to the typical benefits (medical, dental, 401k, etc.) you'll have the opportunity to join other benefit programs such as pet insurance, public transport commuter benefits, shopping programs, and more. We also take great pride in our diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts, our approaches to sustainability, and other socially conscious endeavors.

If you get the opportunity to start your career as early as an internship with us, give it a try and just see where it can take you! If you are a new or recent grad, our Manager in Training opportunities as part of the Accelerated Manager Program might be just right for you! Following management training, you'll typically find yourself in a supervisor or manager-level role, on the fast track for continued leadership through the ranks of Compass Group. Every story is different, of course, but you'll often find our brightest leaders making multiple promotional-level moves within their first few years and beyond. It's also very common to meet people that have been with Compass Group for 20+ years, within different job levels, job areas, and even different sectors!

Whether you are looking for internships within our service sectors or if you are a more corporate-focused major, we have most any opportunity that may appeal to you. Our internships area available in the areas of hospitality, retail, culinary, support services, facilities management, accounting & finance, design, data analytics, human resources, information technology, marketing, sales, purchasing, supply chain, and more!

As a Compass Group intern, you'll not only learn about our intricate industry, you'll also have the opportunity to connect with leaders across your sector and the Compass organization, experience hands-on training in a professional setting, gain professional development, and will have access to a mentor that will help guide you along the way. You will be able to take what you've been learning in your classes and apply the skills in a real-world setting. We strive to provide an extraordinary and inclusive culture that will inspire your sense of accomplishment, expand your professional understanding, and fuel your career development.

Item descriptionThe Accelerated Manager Program, or AMP for short, is a management training program designed for new and recent college graduates. AMP is designed to provide hands-on, day-to day learning within your field and your sector, coupled with dynamic and customized leadership development, as well as one-on-one coaching and mentorship. AMP utilizes a personalized approach aimed at focusing on areas of opportunity for each participant's individual strengths, skills, and interests, while also giving you the tools to expand in areas you may want a bit more experience and focus.

At Compass Group, Manager in Training (MIT) is a job title and completion of the Accelerated Manager Program (AMP) is the catalyst needed for an MIT to move into full-time leadership. Usually, Manager in Training (MIT) will be the job title that an Accelerated Manager Program (AMP) participant will have. Once graduating AMP, they will then also "graduate" job titles into a supervisory or management-level job title.

AMP is currently offered for field-level management roles within the areas of hospitality, culinary, customer service, support services, and facilities management and within our various areas of industry including business & industry (corporate dining), education, healthcare, sports & entertainment, and vending.

Upon successfully graduating the Accelerated Manager Program, participants will move into a supervisory or management-level leadership role within the sector they completed the program. During the course of the program, you and your manager(s) will be communicating what that process will look like and about potential available opportunities upon graduation. Some roles may require relocation, and if this is the case, you will be aware of this potential from very early on so you can decide if that works for you before accepting an offer and so that there are no surprises for anyone later. Once you do graduate and move into leadership, your career path continues from there in whichever direction you want and work to take it.

We call all of the companies under the Compass Group name "sectors." When deciding where you'll kick off your career with Compass, we work diligently to try and understand your interests and to find the sector that best suits those. That said, while not every sector will have available needs at every moment, if we are unable to place you within your most desired sector, we will do our best to help you decide the next best direction. All of our sectors are amazing for many of the same AND for many different reasons! We aim to find what's best for you based on what we currently have available.

Yes, it sure is! There are some parameters around how quickly you look to make those types of moves, but you'll often meet people that have worked within multiple sectors within Compass. Some have wanted to work within a different industry, some have done that and gone back to a prior industry within the company, some decide to go from the field to corporate and others from corporate to the field. It's definitely hard to get bored with such bountiful opportunities at your fingertips!

Work authorization is required for the Accelerated Manager Program and may be required for most internships.
