“I joined the SeekersGuidance Internship because of the enormous impact studying at SeekersGuidance had made on me. Alhamdulillah I got to spend some valuable time in the Content and Outreach Departments, and I witnessed how much work goes on behind the scenes. I was able to polish my planning, organizing, and quality control skills. As an Intern, I was supported at every step and I was able to learn and grow. I also made some wonderful new friends. The dedication and spirit of the team are exemplary.”
