“GenHERation set me up with everything I needed: context, contacts, and drive. The women we met at each company gave us actionable insights that engaged our curiosity and energized the event. Through my involvement in GenHERation, I received two internship offers (Oprah Winfrey Network and NFP) and a mentoring session with a C-suite executive. Learn more about my journey here."

"GenHERation Discovery Days was one of the most valuable experiences that I have had in terms of developing myself as a young professional. I even managed to get an interview and then a full-time job offer from one of the companies we visited after heeding the advice of one of the executives. It was truly an amazing experience and I would definitely recommend it to all of my friends.”

“My favorite part of Discovery Days was the opportunity to network with female professionals in powerful positions in their fields. I used the resources given to us through GenHERation to connect with many of the professionals I met during the day. Asking about some of the opportunities available at their current companies helped me get my internship offer at Barneys."

"GenHERation is truly unique in that there is no other business that can bring young women into a room with the Editor-in-Chief of a major magazine, the CEO of a multimillion dollar company and the EVP of a mass media company all in the same day."

"I am a student at the University of Pittsburgh and had the incredible opportunity to attend Discovery Days in New York City! Discovery Days has shown me the true interconnectedness of this unrivaled platform. I am applying to the Facebook University position for the upcoming rotation that I would have never heard of otherwise."
