I have loved being able to experience what it will be like to work in the field I dream to work in. Doing this internship, it allows people of many different ages to experience the work field they want to work in, and learn many valuable new things such as time management, and stress management. I have really enjoyed doing an internship with ladder and I will recommend it to others.

The project manager is very helpful and provides plenty of assistance in the transition to a work environment. In addition, the workload is fair and involves real application of concepts, not just busywork.

I loved working with the Ladder Internships! This is such a unique company that gives interns such a unique opportunity - the chance to work with a real company and have all the work you do make a difference. During my experience with Ladder, I learned so many new skills and experienced working with a more professional mindset. My favorite part about working with Ladder Internships was that any time I reached out to the company, I got an in-depth response very quickly. I never felt like I was stuck on something that I couldn't manage.

I’m one month into my internship, and I only have positive things to say about Ladder Internships. Ladder provides experiences for high schoolers that most companies do not offer, and the company has been organized, informative, and engaging throughout the whole process. Working with my assigned company has really shown me what the business world is like, and I will be recommending them to my friends!

It's been a good experience thus far and quite valuable. Ladder does a relatively good job in matching a person to an internship and the managers are really nice and accommodating, as well as good on giving clear instructions for deliverables without overwhelming you.

I think that Ladder Internships is a great program for getting a firsthand experience of working on projects of your interests. It's amazing how I got matched with a start-up company that aligns with my interests, and that I get to meet the CEO and other peers to work on my project. I would definitely recommend this program, as this experience lets you explore your interests and gain knowledge through an experience of interning for a company.
