Learn From Indy

OUR COMMUNITY OF CHANGEMAKERS IS HERE TO HELP KICKSTART YOUR CAREER.

Internships are all about growing as a professional and preparing you for the future. At Indyfluence, we believe the best way to do that is by connecting with others, engaging in discussions, and listening to people’s experience and advice. That’s why we organize events where you can learn directly from Indy’s leaders, doers, and creators—including many young professionals just a few years older than you!

During Indyfluence, participating interns can network with some of Indy’s top companies and leaders. But you don’t have to be an Indyfluence intern to learn from Indy! These articles discuss the major tips, lessons, and resources you need to start your career here in Indy.
