TESTIMONIALS
The interns (software engineering and marketing) were intelligent, hardworking, reliable, and highly engaged. I look forward to hiring summer interns from Empowerly again this year!
We've been a member of Empowerly's internship program since 2021 and the quality of interns that you get is very high. They are typically high-performing high school students whose work is often stronger than other college graduate interns that we've hired as their goal is to demonstrate experience in a field in order to boost their college applications. I highly recommend you take advantage of this resource.
