"I highly recommend you join the Graduate Internship Program for Engineering and Computer Science. The program itself helped me save a lot of time on seeking good and suitable internship opportunities, especially when I had a busy semester. The staff in this internship program helped me to figure out what to do on each step as a zero-local-working-experience international student. I also really enjoyed the working environment in the organization, PeriGen, because everyone is helpful, patient, and willing to give you a good guidance. They care about what to learn and how to develop skills instead of how much work can be done. The program also made my future career path clearer to me. Thanks GrlPECS!"
