Any internship opportunities for an MBA student and vet in Bay Area?

Veteran

Victor Corral San Francisco , CA

Hi ACP Community! I'm a veteran of the Navy, and now a first year MBA student with a focus on strategy, innovation, and design. I have 8 years of experience, with several of those managing a multi-million dollar federal education and anti-poverty program.

I am a trained facilitator, project manager and evaluator looking for opportunities to learn and build my skill set with Bay Area companies in their HR, Organizational Development/Culture, and Strategy/Innovation departments.

If you know of companies looking for internships who can start this Fall, I'd love to connect.

Thanks for considering,

Victor

Victor,
Thank you for your service.
If you are not aware of various websites for companies that hire vets; do start there; hireveterans.com is one, others may be found on google searches.

If there are particular companies you are interested in, definitely contact them directly.
Do join the appropriate Linkedin Groups to start networking and doing informational interviews to better position yourself and hopefully develop a mentor.

Linked in also has jobs for students and recent grads, so it's a good place to start your internship search.

Have you used career services at your university?
Best of luck,
Susana

You should contact the City and County of San Francisco, Department of Human Resources. I know that they've had internship opportunities in the past. If you'd like me to connect you to someone who currently works there, please feel free to message me. Good luck!
