Very interesting opportunity, I had a great externship experience, impact full and full of great quality lessons.

Very interesting opportunity and you get to learn a lot through interactions with your host company! The Paragon One team makes the whole process seamless and is there to support you, if needed!

My experience was great because of the people I met. Especially my program manager, she was very helpful to me.
What I like about Paragone one is that they respect time.

- the guidance l got from my program advisors was very helpful.
- the program content was very detailed and easy to understand

Had a great experience with PwC, Paragon One, and ASF leaders. Questions were always answered and guidance was provided. I had the opportunity to collaborate with my peers.

Paragone one served as a strong learning point for me because of how thorough they are and the many opportunities provided to support learning.

Too much intervention from Paragon One by scheduling unnecessary meetings

I absolutely loved the way the training modules were structured and the additional resources that were given to us. It was a really well structured program and I can say that I learnt a lot from it. It also made me realise that I am passionate about conservation and research. Moreover, I loved the meetings and I would rather look forward to them. I was very glad to have been selected as one of the final presenters also! The feedback from the NGS and TNC mentors was spot on and their passion and assistance made me want to give me best to the externship. Overall, I loved the structure of the entire externship and there is nothing I would change. If I had the chance, I would totally do this again! I have also told so many fellow classmates about this and I believe it is a really good opportunity for everyone!

I had the pleasure of participating in the Gaming Market Research & Analytics Externship organized by Paragon One and the hosting company Mobalytics, and I must say, it was an incredible experience. As someone who has no knowledge about gaming and web3, I was excited to gain insights into the industry and learn about the various data-driven approaches used to analyze player behavior.

The program was well-structured and provided a great balance between theoretical learning and practical application. The team at Paragon One and Mobalytics was incredibly knowledgeable and supportive throughout the entire externship. They were always available to answer any questions and provided valuable feedback on my work.

One aspect that stood out to me was the emphasis on collaboration and teamwork. I had the opportunity to work with other externs on various projects, which allowed me to develop my communication and problem-solving skills.

Overall, I highly recommend Paragon One Externship to anyone interested in having real-time experience in the workplace. The program provides a comprehensive industry overview and equips you with the skills needed to succeed in your chosen field.

It was an inclusive ad insightful program that helped me to broaden
my network and gain experience as well.

My internship experience was truly remarkable as I had the opportunity to work with renowned mentors and talented teams at National Geographic and the Nature Conservancy. Throughout the internship, I developed the ability to conduct both primary and secondary research and communicate effectively through delivering compelling stories. Through the guidance of my mentors, I honed my writing skills and learned how to professionally present information. I am grateful for the enriching experience and look forward to applying these skills in my future endeavors.

Everything was well-organized and the platform is really easily accessible.

This Externship provided me an opportunity to work in the most culturally diverse environment in a team of like-minded youth. The most interesting part was gaining a new skill in ArcGIS Storymap writing, which is a compelling way of easily communicating research findings to stakeholders. The ability to collaboratively share ideas and do work, especially in our student-led time helped me improve my communication skills and confidence. Meeting some of the NGS+TNC mentors provided me with a real idea of what takes place on-site. The connection and friendship that have built through this externship shall stand the test of time! The career guidance I got in the process has made me also a career coach to my peers. The entire externship was just amazing!

Easy platform to navigate and great mentorship! A great opportunity for college students to gain experience in their field.

I loved externing at Paragon One because (1) all the staff are super helpful and always answering questions even though the externship is completely remote (2) the platform I submitted deliverables on is sleek and modern rather than clunky (3) I learned a ton of consulting frameworks that I didn’t read about in Marc Cosentino’s “Case in Point: Government and Nonprofit” (4) the challenge that the nonprofit we externs worked to provide solutions for is actually real so the entire experience felt genuine and meaningful (5) I networked with a lot of like-minded budding professionals that have all sorts of career aspirations

the support and patient

The most defining moments of my Paragon One externship were those that involved talking to lead JA staff and learning about financial education in the K-5 space. I also enjoyed the projects and the timelines involved in completing them. An amazing experience, honestly!
