Internships

Presented by the NILE Foundation

Applications for the 2026 Rodeo Billings & NILE Internship Programs are now closed.

The NILE is searching for college students that can keep up with the fast-paced environment of the NILE Stock Show and Rodeo. From early mornings checking in livestock exhibitors to late nights posting barrel race results, there’s no doubt you’ll be tired by the end of it. But, you’ll leave with lifelong friendships, industry connections, and memories that will make the early mornings and late nights absolutely worth it!

Positions offered include:
Competitive Events Internship – Livestock Emphasis
Competitive Events Internship – Equine Emphasis
Media Relations Internship

While the NILE is still months away, it’s never too soon to start thinking about your future. And besides, we know some of you college kids like to procrastinate, so here’s your chance to overcome that weakness and apply way before the deadline!

Applications must be submitted online with all the necessary documentation by July 25, 2025.

A HUGE thank you to the 2026 NILE Interns for their hard work, dedication and time during the 2026 NILE Stock Show & Rodeo!
