A Technology Internship Experience
Technology internships are highly beneficial to students; there just aren’t enough to go around.
We’re changing that.
Are you an educator looking for work-based learning opportunities?
Welcome to the Work Simulator
Looking for an internship experience in information technology (IT)? Perhaps you’re interested in gaining professional experience or you want to learn more about the skills needed for working in tech. The MAXX Potential Work Simulator is built for high school and early college students looking to prepare for a career in the IT industry. Think of it as a place you get to work with experienced IT professionals and gain the experience of a traditional internship all while in an inclusive and risk-free environment. It provides the benefits of mentorship, externship and internship in a learning environment without the professional judgement of a workplace.
MAXX Power is a virtual company with real work to get done.
From your first day at MAXX Power, you will work with your team and other “staff” from different departments. It is a realistic work experience, not a “class,” so in addition to your daily responsibilities, you can expect the unexpected. You may encounter time-sensitive requests, changes in priorities, and issues requiring research or technology that fails. You will benefit from MAXX Power’s team-oriented culture that emphasizes learning-by-doing, collaboration, and candid professional discussions. You will also be assigned a direct manager who is available to provide coaching on an as-needed basis, in addition to regular feedback and an end-of-experience performance review.
