Interns from all over the country love interning at Polycom! But don't just take our word; see what they have to say about their experience below!

What I love most about interning at Polycom is the people I get to work with. I think that's most important in any job. But other than that, definitely the technology and the fact that we make it and we use it—we actually have video conferences with each other every day.

- Technical Product Analyst Intern, Vancouver

I love the people! The culture is really fun and relaxed and everyone is so passionate about what they do! I also like that everyone is very hard-working and when a job needs to be done, it's done!

- Staffing Intern, San Jose

I love how all my managers have a lab in their offices with at least two HDXs, two HD TVs and cables everywhere.

- Beta Intern, Austin

There is such an amazing collection of knowledge in all areas at Polycom. In the short period of time that I have been here; I have learned so much from everyone I have talked with and that I have worked with. Being an intern right now is very interesting with all the change that is happening.

- Marketing Intern, San Jose

Within the first week of my internship, I began working on a project in a programming language that I had never studied before on a topic that I had had no previous experience in. The basic fundamentals of programming in addition to the engineering thought processes that I had learned in school were two things that allowed me to get up to speed very quickly.

- Video Software Intern, Austin

For me the most valuable part of my internship with Polycom has been the ability to transfer my internship projects to projects in my classes. I feel as if my education has become so much more enriched now that I can apply what I learn in class to real life situations at Polycom.

- Human Resources Intern, Pleasanton

The vibe at Polycom is very positive and every day I'm challenged to improve myself in every aspect as person, as a programmer, and as member of the Polycom family.
