“Everyone I worked with at Ernst & Young was always more than willing to help me when I asked, because they understood that I was there to learn. I gained the practical experience and made business contacts that I will need when I start my professional career with them after graduation. Professional internships give you the edge and do make a difference!”

Jamie Taylor, Accounting, Intern with Ernst & Young

“My internship at Roadway Express provided me the opportunity to experience sales first hand. This internship expanded my communication and personal selling abilities by directly working with the reps and sales manager. In my job searches, employers were very eager to learn about my experience in sales. My internship was instrumental in helping me to land a job in Ernest & Julio Gallo's Management and Development Program.”

Jason Reigner, Marketing, Intern with Roadway Express

“My internship with IBM was one of the most valuable experiences in college. It helped me to see how I could apply information learned in the classroom to real business-world situations. The opportunity to interact with different departments enabled me to determine what areas I would like to pursue before actually committing to a full-time position.”

Julie M. Zeiters, Information Management & Analysis, Intern with IBM

“Working as an intern at Capital Blue Cross provided me with the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in a business setting that would be impossible to cover in a textbook or classroom. The professional contacts I have made during my internship will help open the door for employment opportunities upon graduation from Shippensburg University.”
