Our 2019 Summer Interns joined me recently to discuss the integration of their education and professional goals with southeastern NC Career and Technical Education professionals who met at Kinston High School. The inaugural internship experiment at Neuse News and Magic Mile Media was a huge success because we all worked to match their skill sets and talents with projects for our companies and clients.
Three of our five interns (Gracie Herring, Parker Mitchell and Ethan Cahoon) discussed our program with these professionals and then we went back to our office and chatted about improvements for our 2020 Summer Internship Program.
