| Past Bright Future Interns |
Testimonials from businesses:
"Our interns play a key role on many of our company projects. The interns' grasp of knowledge relative to teamwork in our company’s environment far exceeded our expectations. We have utilized over 15 interns the past five years. Each of them demonstrated advanced skill sets. We look forward to this partnership every year." - Marvin Carolina, JE Dunn Construction Company
"Our company is proud to partner with the City Manager’s Office to provide summer internship to students who are pursuing a degree in the communications field. We would have offered a full time position to our intern last year because she demonstrated exceptional skill sets." - Olivia Dorsey, KCWE-KMBC TV
Testimonials from interns:
"I loved my internship last summer! As an intern the last five years, I witnessed first hand how important it is to learn diverse marketable skills. Each year it is important for young people to attend one of Kansas City’s largest employment fairs and gain summer positions in various career sectors. Last year I personally meet one of the financial sponsors, CH2M Hill. It is because of their generosity that I was provided such a
wonderful experience. I plan to pursue my medical degree at the University of Missouri – Kansas City, and I genuinely believe my internships are preparing me for the future." - Alexis Clinton, Lincoln College Preparatory Academy, Junior
"I worked as a web developer/programmer intern for the Information Technology department. My project consisted of building an internal networking system. This was by no means “busy work” but rather an intricate, detail oriented piece that enhances the day-to-day business activities of the City of Kansas City, Mo. The network is still in use today." - Julian Brown, Ottawa University, Freshman
"I interned and experienced an eye-opening lesson on the importance of communication in my chosen field of political science. Currently, I am a student at Boston College, but when I move on, I will utilize the following skills: internal and external communication, problem solving and critical thinking. Learning this key and informative skill has made the internship a valuable experience." - Andrew Schofield, Boston College, Freshman
