Intern Success Stories

Jennifer Maguire

Doyon shareholder Jennifer Maguire began her internship with the Doyon, Limited Human Resources department in April 2003, during her senior year. She graduated the University of Alaska Fairbanks with a bachelor’s of arts degree in English and two minors—applied business and Alaska Native studies.

In 2004, Maguire began working full-time as a recruiter with Doyon, Limited in the human resources department. Before she returned full circle back to Doyon in 2008, Maguire’s journey took her to Tanana Chiefs Conference, Denakkanaaga, Inc, and finally American Nursing Services in Nevada. Maguire also served on the Doyon Foundation board of directors from 2005 to 2008, and graduated from the two-year Doyon Management Training program in 2006.

Since 2008, Maguire has worked for Doyon, Limited in the legal department as a Legal Administrative Assistant. She currently assists the legal department with research, preparation, and maintenance of corporate records.

“My internship in Doyon, Limited’s human resources department provided a synergistic experience between school and employment. During my internship, I obtained job-specific skills and experience which cannot be learned in school. After graduation, my intern experience led to a regular full-time position at Doyon. Doyon shareholders are fortunate to have a corporation which provides internships in so many different fields.” – Doyon Shareholder Jennifer Maguire
