Class 10 Internships Start

137 class ten young professionals have been placed in internships across the city! Corporate partners such as TransUnion, Revantage, Kirkland and Ellis LLP, and more have already welcomed our interns into their offices for orientations and first days. We’re so excited to see how class 10 grows throughout the year!
