On October 27th, Firsthand hosted a Diversity & Inclusion Internship Virtual Career Fair. This unique fair offered the rare opportunity for students to increase their internship prospects and connect with top employers. They were able to meet with a community of experts and alumni who helped them connect the dots between their education, career dreams, and next step forward.

On the day of the fair, in addition to the ability to meet with top employers, interns had access to several live events, including a fireside with Inderpreet Sawhney, one of the top 25 Women Leaders in IT Services.
