This event is a great opportunity for those of you business students who are looking for an internship for summer 2018 or are just looking for additional help to put yourself ahead in the job search!
More about UpTurnships: “UpTurnships is a nonprofit that prepares college students for success through training, coaching and paid internships during college. We are a group of experienced business executives who became concerned about the rising cost of college tuition, a reduction in training and paid internships, and a generation who is suffering the consequences. We believe one solution is to create more opportunities for college students to get the skills, paid work experience and confidence they need during college so they are prepared for the new business reality at graduation.”
