What are people saying about Career Launcher?
Hear first-hand from the interns and employers who benefit from the program.
I would highly recommend this program to recent graduates, finding work directly out of school can be challenging and many jobs want experience prior to hiring. This internship has provided me with plenty of experience and has led me to another position which will increase my employability.
