Hi HN,<p>I'm Kingsong from the Techintern.io team! We connect startups with the best software developers from colleges across North America.<p>Techintern.io started during the pandemic when my cofounders and I, fellow Waterloo alum, saw that a lot of really strong software developer students had their internships cancelled. At the same time, we noticed that certain startups were getting a lot of funding and aggressively looking to hire. We were also inspired by Waterloo's co-op program and hope to bring regular internship opportunities to students from all backgrounds.<p>We connect directly with the best software developers from colleges interested in working at startups. We source them through our network of club leaders at colleges and student organizations. This term we are also expanding to smaller colleges and alternate education programs to open up internship opportunities to everyone, not just students from x, y, or z.<p>Students opt into companies in hiring rounds about once a month. This way, companies get all their details together so that they can reach out, batch interviews and hire within weeks. We've worked with companies of less than 10 people like AudioFocus, where a more experienced intern taking a contractor-like role was the best fit, all the way up to a multinational tech company like Afterpay.<p>We see interns as the best way to expand the tech hiring pipeline as well as find passionate builders for your company. It's also a great way to expand your team's horizons with new perspectives. Please ask me anything about the intern hiring process or projects that might be a good fit for an intern.<p>If you're a VC, we'd love to chat! We have worked with VC firms by connecting their portfolio companies to great student talent. Please reach out at kingsong@techintern.io<p>If you're a tech company or startup, please send us your job role at <a href="https://www.techintern.io" rel="nofollow">https://www.techintern.io</a> before March 31 (next Wednesday)!
