GenHERation Opportunity

See message below from Jerri Bamberger: 

I work for a company called GenHERation, which is a community where young women and companies connect through our digital platform and national events. We have empowered more than 75,000 young women and hosted 60 events across North America through partnerships with Facebook, Google, Twitter, Comcast NBCUniversal, TOMS, NASA, GSK, and the New York Yankees.

This month our partner company Southwest Airlines is looking for talented young high school and college women across the country to help them redesign their wheelchair boarding process. This is a valuable opportunity for students to gain experiences as they prepare for internships and jobs in the future.

Students who participate in this project will have their submissions and resumes shared with Southwest Airlines. The top two submissions will also receive a 30 minute phone mentoring session with a Southwest Airlines professional.

Students can find more information and submit a short application at the link below by Tuesday, April 4.
