Virginia Talent + Opportunity Partnership

Introducing this week's intern spotlight... Tiquan Goode is a current Experiential Learning and Leadership intern at the Virginia Cooperative Extension at Virginia State University. He is studying Family and Consumer Science at VSU as well. "I have volunteered with various Cooperative Extension programs offered through Virginia Tech, including 4-H, for over 10 years. Attending VSU gave me the opportunity to experience Cooperative Extension programs through the lens of Virginia State University, Virginia’s 1890 Land-Grant Institution" Goode said, speaking to his interest in interning at Virginia Cooperative Extension (VSU). "In my free time, I enjoy volunteering with various organizations that align with my passion for community development and youth empowerment, particularly 4-H."

Introducing our newest initiative... the V-TOP Intern Spotlight! Jasmine Pierce is a current marketing intern at Dominion Payroll and studies at Virginia State University. She previously interned at Church & Dwight Co., Inc. (Arm & Hammer), Coca-Cola Consolidated, and Germono Advertising Company. "What intrigued me most about my internship position was the chance to deepen my understanding of marketing and data analytics," Pierce said, speaking to her interest in interning at Dominion Payroll. "I was eager to explore the advanced tools and techniques used to analyze data and derive actionable insights, and to see firsthand how these strategies can drive meaningful results for a company." #internspotlight #vtop #talentinvirginia

A few days ago in Richmond, Shockey gathered with a host of amazing employers and interns (aka future leaders) to celebrate #VirginiaInternDay, at an event coordinated by the Virginia Talent + Opportunity Partnership. There is no substitute for a hands-on internship experience - it's a win, for everyone. Pictured here: Crew Gregory (one of our summer interns, from West Virginia University) and Brian Partin (Shockey teammate from the Richmond office.)

In honor of #VirginiaInternDay, I wanted to take a moment to express how rewarding it has been to serve as a Virginia Intern Day Student Ambassador! During the Hoos Getting Ready Summer Residential Program at the University of Virginia, I was able to share my internship experiences with fellow UVA Students, Interns, and Professors while also creating connections and raising awareness about National Intern Day! Thank you to the University of Virginia Career Center for promoting this amazing opportunity and Virginia Talent + Opportunity Partnership for allowing me to share my internship journey!
