STEM Advantage

If you’re recruiting for 2025 #internships and #entrylevel roles, we have top STEM talent from diverse backgrounds and underrepresented communities. Our scholars are primarily first-generation college students earning a bachelor's degree in a STEM major. We have a pool of skilled and vetted STEM candidates ready to make a difference in your organization. Join us in our mission to mentor and support the next generation of #STEM leaders and make a lasting impact on the industry. There is no cost or obligation to hire. We work with leading organizations such as Accenture, Farmers Insurance and Qualcomm, to provide top-tier candidates. Please contact Jasmyn Masters-Culpepper, CPCC at jasmyn@stemadvantage.org. For program information, visit: https://lnkd.in/gNZJ-XeG.

At STEM Advantage, we believe that talent is equally distributed, but opportunity is not—and that’s where we step in. We are committed to leveling the playing field by providing access to the resources, mentorship, and networks that many underrepresented students in STEM fields lack. Every brilliant mind deserves the chance to shine, regardless of background. By empowering diverse scholars with the tools they need to succeed, we’re not just bridging gaps—we’re building pathways to a future where everyone’s potential is realized. We’re excited to share our latest video—highlighting the incredible impact of STEM Advantage through inspiring stories from our scholars, partners, and the transformative opportunities we’re creating together.
