What I wish was different

Nothing.

Software Consulting Intern

June - August 2019 • Dallas, TX

What I liked

One of the best internship experiences out there! The intern projects are perfectly tailored for the scope of the 10-week internship for your skill level and no direct experience with specific technology is required. You and 4 other talented college students develop a software product for a local non-profit with the help of a full-time project manager and tech lead. You learn about what consulting is like, what production level, full-stack software engineering is like, and you get the experience the amazing people and culture of Pariveda! They have public outings for fun, team lunches, catered "lunch and learns" where you learn more about Pariveda, multiple social events every week, and tons of great people to hang out with and get to know over your experience. You get direct, hands-on development experience with a great project manager under the Agile development. You are given mentors who guide you along the way who help you set personal development goals. They are really focused on developing you as a person and at the end of the day really, really care about your progress and journey in consulting. The Dallas office is where Pariveda is headquartered, and so it is a great office to be in because it is large and has tons of activities and interest groups to get involved in if you want. The hourly rate, housing stipend, and signing bonus are very competitive, and all of that is working only 40 hours per week MAX - you are never, ever asked to work more than that.

What I wish was different

I really wish I could find something I disliked or thought could be improved in my experience with Pariveda, but honestly, there wasn't a single red flag. They really treat interns well (some even say better than full-times) and they really care about you every stop throughout the process.

Advice

The internship is pretty competitive because it is such great experience. Do some research on Pariveda and the internship before hand and come with thoughtful questions and a desire to learn more about Pariveda when they come for your University. Realize consulting involves just as much soft skills as technical skills.

Software Consulting Intern

May - August 2019 • Houston, TX

What I liked

Amazing atmosphere! The people at Pariveda are amazing. They really work to help you grow as a developer and a person. As an intern I worked with a team of interns to build a mobile app from scratch and gained hands-on experience coding and working face to face with the client. Lots of Independence and opportunities to challenge oneself.

What I wish was different

Nothing. Which sounds crazy. But at Pariveda I felt respected, challenged, and understood.

Advice

If you're interested in coding AND talking to people, Pariveda is the company for you. Biggest piece of advice is to be willing to put yourself out there, try new things, and fail. It's the best way to grow and learn!
