I'm halfway through my internship with Ladder, and I was paired with a great start-up and manager. Ladder kept in touch the whole time to make sure everything was going well, and I had the amazing opportunity to connect with people across the world and learn from them. I highly recommend!

Overall, I really enjoyed the program. My intern managers were great. They helped me whenever I encountered roadblocks and I truly learnt a lot, both soft skills and subject specific knowledge. I also liked how well-structured the program was. I learnt valuable lessons from the Sparkwise sessions. I will carry these learnings with me as I study in college and work in a professional setting.

I had the incredible opportunity to embark on my first ever internship with a top startup thanks to ladder internships. It was an incredible experiance and I had recieved a lot of value coming out of the internship. The internship provides a perfect blend of theory and hands on practise, enhancing my skills and confidence. What made it truly exceptional was the mentorship and personal development focus. Weekly meetings with a dedicated internship manager and team lead had provided me with invaluable feedback and guidance. The diverse and inclusive learning environment allowed me to collaborate with a range of interns, expanding my perspectives and skills. The program's clear organization and well-defined goals ensured that every day was purposeful, and I understood how my work contributed to the organization's mission. This internship has been a life-changing experience, offering not only valuable skills but also lasting connections and mentors for life. I enthusiastically recommend it to anyone seeking an educational internship. Five stars can't adequately express the true quality of this opportunity!

Firstly, their communication is beyond great. They have solutions to every problem that you incur before applying or after getting accepted. Secondly, the experience is one of a kind. You’ll seldom get to work with such distinctive individuals from different continents of the world. Besides this, I had the opportunity to communicate my concerns and with others helping refine my ideas and thinking process - I grew. The team ensures your analytical thinking skills are put to test and honed simultaneously. This is (without exaggeration) one of the best internships you can be a part of.
