Internship opportunities provide numerous benefits for students, but do they provide significant value to employers and companies that offer them? Research says yes. ✅ From a study of successful companies in today's world, 40% of their full-time employees come from the company's internship program. Building a workforce for the future and adding to a company's talent pipeline reap incredible long-term benefits. 📈 Interns can support the current workforce in a customizable way that can maximize productivity. They can also offer a fresher, creative perspective on newer problems. 📊 GoPursue streamlines the talent pipeline-building process for both sides, creating a more effective way to support students and employers!

Starting is the hardest. Whether it's going from 0 to 60 in a car....going from 0 network to 2000+ followers.....going from 0 to 1 with a product. It's a battle against gravity and the laws of inertia everyday. Thank you Washington Nationals and PNC for giving us a big boost in inertia. This was an unforgettable moment.
Here at the Nationals we ❤️ small business. Last week we were honored to celebrate six local DMV small businesses here at Nationals Park, along with their amazing founders, in partnership with PNC! Going to Bat for Small Business celebrates these deserving leaders who are not only successful entrepreneurs, but give back day in and day out to their communities. Congratulations and keep up the great work! GoPursue Founder & CEO Kathryn Adabonyan | Journal Tour & Travels Owners Luis & Heidy Escotto ARM Consulting, LLC. President & CEO Angela Mitchell | A.

“I like that mentors put their college majors! I’m always curious about what people majored in.” 👀👀👀 Students are often unaware that there can be multiple career pathways that stem from any major. Being able to see which areas working professionals majored in helps them visualize these different pathways! Want to join us in supporting young students? Sign up at https://hubz.li/Q02tnX-_0!

We are excited to see the results of this contemporary plan and how it can impact accessibility to opportunities for the city of New York!

We love hosting high school interns through SYEP. We’ve hosted 6 so far, and look forward to the next. Thanks to the partners who help pair us with interns: OSSE Office of Industry Engagement DC Department of Employment Services District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) Hakeem Rogers
Congratulations to all of our outstanding youth! Over 200 young people were recognized for their exceptional work this summer. Through the Mayor’s Opportunity Scholarship, we awarded nearly $700,000 in scholarships, ranging from $4,500 to $20,000. Our Pathways to Health Care Scholarship program awarded five scholarships, totaling $100,000, to aspiring medical professionals. These recipients underwent a rigorous application and interview process, during which they identified and proposed solutions for pressing medical issues in their communities. Their presentations addressed critical topics such as food disparities, mental health, hypertension, and heart disease. I am proud of the nearly 12,000 young people who participated in the Marion Barry Summer Youth Employment Program (MBSYEP). Thank you to all our host employer partners and my dedicated staff for making this summer a success. I got my first job through the Marion Barry Summer Jobs Program, and now I have the privilege of maintaining that legacy!
