Want to help out your fellow students? Share your experiences and give advice about getting an internship in high tech? I am looking for 1-2 students who have had a summer internship to be part of a very informal panel to talk about their positive experiences getting an internship in high tech. I also plan to have 2-3 employer representatives on the panel.
