Every year, employers in Allen County successfully attract hundreds of talented college students from across the nation, drawn by the promise of meaningful internships and professional growth. To support these emerging professionals and foster their connection to our community, The Intern Experience provides a vibrant and engaging series of summer events. These activities are carefully curated to showcase Allen County’s unique blend of career opportunities, cultural richness, and community spirit.

By immersing interns in the fabric of our community—through networking events, social gatherings, and exposure to local businesses—we aim to spark a genuine interest in building their futures here. Our ultimate goal is to inspire a sense of belonging and create lasting connections that encourage these bright individuals to envision Allen County not just as a stop on their career journey, but as a place to call home after graduation.
