Photolithography. Metrology. Wafer fab. Admittedly, these are words that I never thought I’d hear from my daughter over casual dinner conversation. 😉👩🏻💻 It’s hard to express the pride I feel, not only as her mom, but also as someone who is passionate about #STEM. 👩🏻🔬 Like many burgeoning young adults, she is interning this summer - as a process engineer in the semiconductor industry. 👩🏻🏭 Camryn Moore University of Michigan College of Engineering〽️ Serendipitously, one of my first internship experiences was with semiconductors as well (gallium arsenide wafers to be specific🤓) – and as I reflect on my career, my professional foundation was established through these early experiences across multiple companies and groups. 💡 From the establishment of discipline (aka adulting😀), practical application of skills and education, and the opportunity to foster meaningful, diverse relationships, internships (as well as other experiential learning opportunities such as co-ops, externships, and micro-internships) provide an invaluable investment in our next generation of leaders. 📚📖 Did you know that completing an internship makes you 85% more likely to obtain employment after graduation? (Prosperity for America org & Standout-CV) 👨🎓🧑🏽🎓👩🏻🎓 Or that 85% of employers offer full-time jobs to successful interns? (NACE Web) 💼 And that there are about 4.1M internships in the US this year, with roughly 500,000 Americans interning for free? (What to Become) As leaders, one of our most critical roles is to discover and develop talent. Across every business, sector, and organization, talent is needed to execute today, chart the path for tomorrow, and lead us towards a brighter future. 📈 The time to invest in our younger generations is now. 💯 Experiential learning is a vital part of growth – and the earlier we invest, the better off we’ll be as a society. If you don’t have a systemic strategy and operational plan that focuses on your next gen talent coupled with engagement in the communities in which you live-work-and-play, you’re placing your relevance, contribution, and growth at risk. Intergenerational workforces are more innovative, engaging, and dynamic. Key elements of successful programs include: ✅ Meaningful Work ✅ Active Manager/Leadership Involvement & Executive Sponsorship ✅ Cohorts of Peers & Social Opportunities ✅ Active Communication, Feedback & Regular Touchpoints ✅ Training & Development ✅ Structured Relationship & Connection Building ✅ Compensation & Recognition If you have any insights you’d like to share about your internship experiences and/or programs, please do! 🤝 Here’s to #NationalInternDay and all interns around the world. 👏🙌👏 Thank you for your energy, engagement, and contributions. 🙏We’re proud of you and excited for what the future holds. Your future is yours to create, and we’re here to support you. #InclusiveLeadership #NextGen #BetheChange🌎 #PayitForward➡️

Internship opportunities

In Indian engineering colleges, a student’s status and self-worth are determined primarily by below two things 1. Summer internship stipend 2. Final CTC The companies that bestow the highest status upon you are the familiar names — Big Tech or FAANG, top investment banks, etc. Back in 2019, all of my college friends had internship offers in hand. I had a full-time offer from Barclays, but no internship. A few weeks later, Nvidia came for internships. Luckily, I got in. But my friends only sympathized with me because the stipend I was going to get was < 25k, unlike their 60k FAANG internship stipends. Nvidia wasn't mainstream or top-tier then. My friends pitied me and advised to look for off-campus opportunities. I felt compelled to seek better opportunities to reclaim my self-worth. Then, a twist of fate. I landed an internship at Goldman Sachs. Now, I was going to get a whopping ~75k stipend, the highest in my batch, and high enough to restore my self-worth. I decided to ditch Nvidia for 50k more cash. A few days back, Nvidia surpassed Apple with a market cap of $3 trillion. The CEO, Jensen Huang, has a net worth of $100 billion. Undoubtedly, if someone were to get a summer internship at Nvidia today, they'd be regarded with awe and admiration. And me, who chose to ditch Nvidia for a more sought-after role, would have comfortably been a millionaire had I stuck around. Sometimes, the best decisions are the ones we don’t take.
