Danielle Rodriguez

Hired: Software Developer Intern at Met Bank

A year ago, I didn't have any clue how to get an internship, the importance of LinkedIn, or how to succeed in a behavioral interview. I can now say that I'm confident in my skills to navigate getting an internship and connecting with others."

Fall 2022 Student Participant

I now know how to connect with companies, build a resume, and perform well in interviews. I didn't know how to do any of this a few months ago. I feel a million times more confident."

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Close the Inequity and Skills Gap

Internship Connection addresses three crucial gaps that prevent underrepresented students from accessing careers in technology:

 

Icon of directional signage with briefcase

Knowledge Gap

Lack of awareness about job search strategies, interview formats, and networking skills result in students using ineffective methods to pursue internships

012-software development

Practice Gap

Most students do not possess the hard and soft skills required to succeed in the tech industry

Network Gap

Underrepresented students typically do not have connections to engineers in the tech industry, limiting their access to opportunities
