Why SHE WORKS?

To provide internship equality and close the female leadership gap. When it comes to internships, connections matter most. 

91% of surveyed college interns indicate that connections landed internships (43% family connections). - Forbes

Although women and men are participating in internships at nearly the same rate, women participate in 20 percent more unpaid internships than men.*

When race is considered, Hispanic American students have the lowest rate of participating in an internship (53.3%), followed by African American students (59.5%), Asian American students (63.2%), and Caucasian students (68.2%).*

Internship experience has been proven to increase a student's chance of getting a job in their field with 51.7% of graduating students who held an internship receiving a job offer by graduation.*

Thank you so much for the amazing opportunity to participate in these informative training sessions! I enjoyed getting to know more young women through networking, as it was inspiring to make connections over zoom. I also greatly valued all of the resources presented to us from the weekly articles to the guest speakers. I am grateful to have learned so much about professionalism, leadership, and diversity in the workplace, and I know I will use these tips for future experiences. SHE WORKS and Live Girl are now great resources to me, and I hope I can work again with you in the future!
