Engenius partners with other local businesses to offer high-tech summer internships

GREENVILLE, S.C. – Engenius is joining with other local high-growth businesses to offer significant work experience for high school and college students this summer through internships.

This is the second year in a row that Engenius is taking part in the program through NEXT, an Upstate consortium of high-tech companies in downtown Greenville.

“Experience is such a key in today’s job market,” said Chris Manley, Engenius’s managing partner.  “We are excited to offer opportunities for local students to gain professional experience and show them all that Greenville has to offer.”

Manley said this is a way of showing area college students the potential for technology-focused careers right here in the greater Greenville area. The region has been facing a “brain drain” for years and many economic leaders say technology jobs are needed to help raise the Upstate’s standard of living.

A variety of high-tech positions will be featured in the program.  Interested high school or college students can view positions online at www.interngreenville.com.  Applications must be submitted by February 24 and interviews will take place on March 5.  Positions available are focused on the areas of technology, marketing, and online media.
