I recently graduated college, and faced the question, "now what?" I wanted to figure out my career path, but I also hoped I could find an opportunity to travel. The Connect-123 program is a fantastic solution! I was really impressed by their internship finding process. Lea and I communicated a lot and I feel like my internship was custom tailored to fit my goals. My placement at the national office of a nonprofit has been incredibly valuable. My supervisor was incredibly supportive, organized, and always willing to take time to teach me more about nonprofit work. I really enjoyed the work environment and it felt safe to ask questions. Also, exploring the city is a blast! There is so much history and culture. Despite staying for 2 months, I still feel like there is more I want to see! I am so glad that I took the leap and did this program. It has been such an adventure and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to try something new.
