Like a medical school clinical
but for tech
Students at Preintern = interns at Teamwyrk.org
Instructors at Preintern = managers at Teamwyrk.org
Each month of unemployment in a six figure job = $8000+ of income missed out
Preintern helps you by:
Making you stand out and overqualified
Our students land 3-5x more interviews (both internships and FT) and easily convert more of them
Showcasing your work on our nonprofit with active users
Hiring managers don't want to waste time training new direct reports and need to see proof of work
Sharing practices from Silicon Valley
Unlike low quality unpaid internships, we have processes like Agile, which preps you to succeed once you do land a job
Selecting an exclusive and fun community
We work together and make some new friends. We truly support each other
Santosh
Engineering Manager, DocuSign
“I prefer hiring candidates with not only relevant coursework, but also relevant work experience. It is difficult to differentiate between hundreds of otherwise similar resumes.
Preinterns don’t need as much handholding because they can communicate on teams, which is what is important on the job.
I have been impressed by the skills that they’ve acquired, since this is the first program that builds actual features at scale. How to build products is one of the hardest things to teach, so Preintern sets grads up for success!“

Esther
Associate Product Manager, Bevy
Student at UC Berkeley
“I applied to hundreds of jobs and almost never got responses. I then gained experience here and got an offer at a startup backed by top VCs that only hired one APM intern. I couldn’t have done this without Preintern.
I’ve made lifelong connections here and already referred multiple of my friends to the program. I can’t recommend it enough!”

Too simple to impress hiring managers
Cross-functional work with Agile

Not focused on career development
