Shaping Tomorrow’s Leaders: Attain Partners Engages Rising Juniors and Seniors in College for Internship Program
Aubrie Browne
Attain Partners Intern
This past summer, I joined Attain Partners as part of their summer intern program. Through this experience, I received invaluable mentorship and had the privilege of contributing to two projects, each offering unique learning opportunities for personal and professional growth.
My first project assignment was for Attain Talent, where another intern and I were tasked with creating a comprehensive business development plan. Throughout the summer, under the guidance of our amazing project managers and sponsors, we developed a LinkedIn and email drip campaign, initiated client outreach, pitched Attain Talent to potential clients, and strategized a business development plan to help drive client base expansion. Additionally, after much research and multiple iterations, we built a database in SharePoint with Power BI visualization to track client outreach and streamline relationship management. This project was an extremely rewarding experience, and it provided me with valuable insights into sales, recruiting, and business development while pushing me out of my comfort zone through collaborating on the Attain Talent database.
The second project I was able to work on was for a large multi-university Workday implementation where I contributed to testing support and change management activities. While working on this project, we helped organize the Smartsheet testing by triaging and analyzing defects and sending testing reminder emails to help keep the project timeline on track. I also had the opportunity to contribute to the June and July editions of a local newsletter and do a survey analysis from testing onsite. This project provided me with hands-on experience and valuable insights into change management, qualitative data analysis, data organization, and effective project timeline management.
My internship at Attain Partners has been an incredible learning experience that has allowed me to deepen my understanding of consulting and explore diverse areas of interest. What stands out most to me about Attain Partners is its one-of-a-kind environment. Attain Partners excels in fostering a learning environment for its interns, offering real and impactful projects, dedicated sponsors and project managers, and structured learning discussions. I am proud to be an intern at Attain Partners because of the company’s unwavering commitment to “The Attain Way” and to have the chance to grow professionally while surrounded by a team of inspiring and supportive individuals.
