We want to get our students into your career paths. If you have current openings, we can publicize them through our social media and Discord. If you want to raise awareness, we’re happy to host a free job talk where you describe what makes your internships and careers specials and we share them with students as recordings on the Internship or Careers page. We also gather student resumes and maintain a database of interested candidates; we can share this information with you when it’s helpful.
We are here to help! If you have any questions or want to iron out the details, email: [email protected]
We also have an industry intake form that walks through the options:
