"The intern program at Nokia is truly designed to give students all the support and guidance we need to excel in our professional careers. Working at Nokia as a software developer Co-op, I was able to learn and grow with the guidance of mentors from across the company through a multitude of research, development, and leadership opportunities. It was exciting to be able to contribute to real-world projects and apply my previous experiences to new domains, especially since the Nokia work culture encourages innovation and creativity. I've made lifelong connections and skills through my time here, and I'm so grateful to have been a part of the Nokia team!" - Mara Hubelbank, Former Nokia Co-op student, Spring - Summer 2021
