New Haven Promise Internship Fair 2023
January 22, 2023
The New Haven Promise Internship Fair on Jan 11th celebrated ten years of building and connecting local talent with employers to strengthen the local economy. Yale’s New Haven Hiring Initiative partnered with New Haven Promise to host the Internship Fair at Yale’s Schwarzman Center. Over 200 Promise Scholars, made up of current and recently graduated college students, registered for the fair. The enthusiastic and engaged Scholars met with over 25 Yale University departments with paid summer internship opportunities and entry-level positions for recent grads. Eager to hire local talent, 26 additional New Haven employers were in attendance.
Of the New Haven Promise registrants, 85% were ethnically diverse, graduates representing 13 city high schools, Wilbur Cross leading the way with 52 former students, and 27 colleges and universities were represented, with UCONN leading the way with 81 attendees.
New Haven Promise Scholars will begin virtual or hybrid internships with Yale University and other New Haven area employers in late May, with most ending in mid-August.
