Q: (Initially posted December 22, 2004) FROM STUDENT MEMBER CHRISTIE O. IN WA
Hello! Happy Holidays to everyone! I am curious to
know how I could find out places in Seattle, WA for
good internships or part-time summer jobs for this
coming summer of 2005? I am a senior in high school
and I would like to get some more work experience if
possible. Would any you know of any contacts or online
sites that I could contact for more information? Thank you!

Hi Christie-
I know a GEM-SET student member had a good experience as a summer intern at Microsoft in the Seattle area. If you would like to read a bit about her experience read this:

The deadline for summer 2005 is March 25th. To learn about how to apply, go to the Microsoft web site at http://www.microsoft.com/College/highschool/highschool.mspx

There is also a camp/ internship page located on the GEM-SET web site at
http://www.uic.edu/orgs/gem-set/camps. The 2005 update will be ready soon. Check back as new internships become available.
