As we navigate the ever-evolving job market, one thing remains clear: internships are a vital stepping stone for young professionals. At ALJ Egypt, we recognize the significance of nurturing young talent through structured internship programs. Our initiatives are not just about filling roles; they are designed to empower future leaders by providing them with hands-on experience, mentorship, and a deeper understanding of their chosen fields. #Internships #CareerDevelopment #ALJEgypt #FutureLeaders #Mentorship #ProfessionalGrowth

Looking ahead, Downtown Raleigh’s vision for the future must be grounded in our partnerships and relationships we build with one another 🤝 Our new Economic Development Strategy outlines opportunities to grow partnerships and create fresh strategies to bridge missing or underused connections in the community. How? 📌 Work with local partners to bring even more life science companies to downtown, further bolstering this industry and local innovation (ex. Linking NCSU’s Centennial Campus and downtown as complementary innovation centers) 📌 Develop a specialized ecosystem for Minority-and Women-Owned Businesses that provides more financial support, more space for testing/pop-ups, and more internship opportunities 📌 Broaden the overall business brand and appeal of Downtown Raleigh as a home to the highest concentration of creative and design-based firms in Wake County/the Triangle Learn more about the Economic Development Strategy 👇 https://bit.ly/3MVU0WX

Some of the most successful and brilliant people I know tend to have four things in common: 1. A strong professional network of peers and professionals in their area of interest 2. A mentor who guides them along their journey and provides powerful insights/tips 3. An internship that has given them hands-on experience and re-enforce the fundamentals they learned in the classroom 4. A support system filled with people who believe in them and support them in their endeavors The Patti Grace Smith Fellowship program provides all of these elements to African-American undergraduate students seeking their first internship in the Aerospace industry. If this sounds like you or someone you may know, I encourage you to apply! From personal experience, this program has been the pivotal point in my professional career and made me into the person I am today. At times, it may seem like you have to be an aerospace engineering student to apply, but I can ensure you that is not the case. All majors are welcomed to apply so long as you have a deep passion for air or space!! #opportunities #aerospace #blackexcellence

I should add that these are PAID internships. Not only does this make our internships accessible to those who can’t afford to work for free, there is a noticeable difference in the quality and consistency of their work over the span of the semester. It is a lot easier to give more to an organization when they are compensating you for your time. At the very least, I believe we need to be paying interns enough to cover the indirect expenses that come with a job (gas, meals, clothing, etc.).

Big things are happening in the Jones College Supply Chain Management program! Congratulations to Dr. Richard Tarpey, new Director of the Center for Supply Chain Management and Sustainability! #supplychain #sustainability #supplychainmanagement
