Externs say the experience they got from externships made the biggest difference in launching their careers
Devan Horn
The externship experience gave me hands-on exposure to real-world investment analysis and sharpened how I present financial insights at a professional level. The company and I stayed in contact and I was later offered the opportunity to join the team and I took it.
Currently:
Venture Capital Analyst intern at Mangusta Capital
Gevans Gabeau
In my Capital One interview, they asked what I was doing to grow professionally, and I immediately drew back on my externship experience. Everyone wants you to have experience before you can even get an internship, and Extern was what helped me break through that barrier.
Currently:
Incoming Investment Banking Analyst - Lazard
Khalid Farah
The project felt real, practical, useful, and using AI made things easier to understand. Overall, it was a good experience that showed me how things actually work.
Currently:
Private Equity Summer Analyst at Ally Equity Partners
Gabrielle Villagonzalo
I love how Extern guides their externs. They're there with you every step of the way. It’s very beginner friendly and it’s also interactive learning that meets you where you're at.
Currently:
Incoming Operations Summer Intern @ Amazon
Isis Cesar
I really enjoyed this experience. It was flexible, which made it easier to focused on school, work, and do the externship. I got to meet people (networking). I also like that the meeting were recorded, so I could look back when I couldn't make it to the actual meetings.
Currently:
Intern @ Fifa World Cup Houston
Jaysen Price
Conducting market research, analyzing real consumer data, and then turning those insights into a strategic product recommendations gave me confidence. It showed me what a business project really looks like and how it all comes together.
Currently:
Marketing Intern @ NBT Financial
Aman Bilodi
The externship taught me a lot about Venture Capital and the process of selecting, doing due diligence, and creating an investment memo for a startup. This Externship taught me a lot of skills that I can use later in my career.
Currently:
GTM Intern @ Acceldata
Daniel Shaker
Overall it was a great experience and great way to learn new skills. They really take the time to guide you and when you're learning new skills, you're also learning about the tools which is huge.
Currently:
Incoming Operations Summer Analyst @ Morgan Stanley
Elizabeth Guzman De Anda
My Master’s program is more transactional. You do the assignments, you learn the theory, but Extern helped me see how to actually use those skills in a business context.
Currently:
Data & Operations Analyst @ University of San Francisco
Addis Romero
I landed multiple roles because of Extern, and I am living out all of my dreams. Thank you for believing in me — I’m so grateful to have been part of this program!

Alice Mollet
I was able to have tangible experiences to touch upon in my interviews. I explained what I was working on and how it would impact my role in their firm — and they loved it.
Currently:

Positive aspects included hands-on experience in structuring investment memos and utilizing AI to streamline content creation. This is the type of experience that matters when interviewing.

Even two years after my externship, I was still bringing it up in job interviews because it was so relevant to my career growth. It helped me get internships.
Currently:
Structured Finance Intern at EY
Bintou Majula Drammeh
Less than two months after my externship, I landed a junior year internship with Goldman Sachs. I talked a lot about the project we worked on during the externship, how we had to check in on different points of the work, and how that really built my confidence.

Dakarai Young
Extern was the very first thing on my resume. I pulled up the slide deck I built during my externship in an interview, and it snowballed into roles at Dell, Google, and now Microsoft.
Currently:
Analyst at Microsoft
Erik Schalk
Extern played a crucial role in bridging the gap between my education & the real world. Being able to present recommendations to the Head of Customer Insights at Beats was what paved the way for my current role at Rolls-Royce.
Currently:
Government Property Manager at Rolls Royce
Garrett Boyce
If I hadn’t done an externship, I’d be spending hours watching YouTube videos to understand which careers I might enjoy! Externships should be a requirement for every college student.
Currently:
Deployment Strategist at Palantir
Rajat Sood
Coming into college it’s hard to get experience. Extern really helped me showcase my skills in interviews and gave me something solid on my resume.
Currently:

Sabine Kabuika
I got to work with real data and present insights that mattered. Those externships gave me the confidence and portfolio to land my next opportunity.

My externships gave me hands-on marketing experience I never got in college — and helped me define my career goals. I think everybody should know about externships!
Currently:
Social Media Marketing Intern at Nintendo
Shapnil Roy
College teaches you how to think. Extern teaches you how to apply it. My externship experiences provided me with a broad perspective on how various parts of a company operate, from strategy to supply chain management.
Currently:
Intern at Colgate
Alejandra Campos
My externships gave me practice in explaining, researching, analyzing and most importantly the presentation skills that I now use in my current role. I was only able to get amazing opportunities because I finally had experience on my resume from my externships.
Currently:
Marketing Analyst at BlackRock
Thaddeus Dirige
My AT&T externship caught the eyes of execs which led to an internship at the AT&T Dallas HQ. If it weren't for the Extern, I wouldn't have gotten that internship opportunity to begin with.
Currently:
Data Analytics Intern at AT&T
Krishna Janyavula
It was a very valuable experience — especially the final pitch project which helped me land an internship this summer.

Once Externs complete their externship, they put the experience and skills on their resume and LinkedIns. This gives externs an opportunity to showcase and prove they did projects, learned the skills, and had the direct experience from the company and mentor. Externs can now show their experience is real, it’s not a case study, it’s not a simulation, it’s real experience they get to put on their LinkedIn.
