Are you looking for stellar talent to fill summer internships?

Silicon Valley Semester Student Spotlight

If we had to choose one theme for the last 4 months, it would likely be "Connections." The 28 students wrapping up their semester in the Bay Area have connected with alums and employers in the area, laying the groundwork for professional relationships and mentoring opportunities. The students have also connected with the beauty and diversity of California, whether by hiking in Muir Woods, attending concerts in the city, or organizing road trips to Yosemite and San Diego. Most significant, however, are the connections the students have made with one another. An outside observer might assume that the SVS students have been friends for years because of their camaraderie and close working relationships when, in fact, most were strangers to each other before they arrived here in January. These fantastic students continue to thrive and grow in their internships, while forging lifelong bonds with each other and with folks in the Bay Area. Here are a few of our students.
