The latest from Mentorshipped — program announcements, student spotlights, and insights on youth workforce development.
We're thrilled to announce that applications are now open for our Fall 2026 internship cohort. This cycle we're adding three new partner companies and expanding our Digital Marketing and UX/UI tracks to accommodate more students across Orange County.
Marcus joined Mentorshipped with a passion for video but no professional experience. By week eight he had produced a brand video with over 12,000 organic views — and a job offer waiting at graduation.
We're welcoming five new partner companies to the Mentorshipped network, spanning tech, healthcare, and creative industries. Each partner commits to hosting at least one intern per cohort and providing a dedicated mentor.
Reaching 100 students placed is a milestone we're proud of — but the number that matters most to us is 95%, our program completion rate. We reflect on what's working and where we're headed next.
Landing the internship is only half the battle. Our program directors share the five habits and mindset shifts that separate students who thrive from those who just show up.
