Altec Celebrates 2020 Summer Corporate Interns

At Altec, we live and work by a set of values that place the customer first and view people as our greatest strength. Throughout our history, we have maintained a consistent culture that has helped us earn the confidence of our customers and associates worldwide.

That’s why today, Altec is an innovative, financially sound company setting the standard of excellence in design, manufacturing and service. We are dedicated to ensuring an inclusive and welcoming environment that hosts a diverse team of associates and interns. We believe these individuals truly represent the best our industry has to offer.

In 2020, despite a global pandemic, Altec remained committed to hosting our summer internship program. While our interns could not work with our teams in person, they were given the opportunity to work virtually from home. These interns joined meetings, completed team projects and learned the ins and outs of working in a corporate environment. In addition, these students participated in weekly video calls with Altec Leadership.

To give an in-depth look at what an internship with Altec is like, interviewed Jessika Wren, who interned with our Information Services department this summer.
