“
“McConkey's internship program provides interns the opportunity to experience, learn, and contribute; I strongly recommend this program for students searching out an internship full of challenges and experiences that go far beyond a summer paycheck.”

“The first thing I noticed about McConkey was the positive environment in the office. Coming in as the intern, you think you’re going to be treated in a different way which could result in a negative experience. Right from the start I was treated like a seasoned employee.”
