Intern Program
Preparing for the real world through events like Speed Networking
ClearVision's Intern Program strives to empower students by providing a unique learning experience that will ease the transition from student to professional.
ClearVision’s Intern Program is a great opportunity for students to “get their feet wet” in the workforce. Our renowned program ties back to the company’s motto: treat others how you wish to be treated. We treat our interns just as we treat any other employee, while giving them the experience they need to make that critical transition from student to professional.
How is our program unique? We take an integrated, interactive approach, providing “real” assignments intermingled with opportunities to develop “real life” skills through training, management interaction, and inclusion in organization events.
What you can expect to learn?
We focus on key skills training, including:
- individual brand building
- techniques for creative brainstorming
- critical thinking methodologies
- interview preparation
We also provide an interactive management speaker series and inclusion in the company’s philanthropic outreach.

Book Club with the President: Each summer, ClearVision President David Friedfeld selects a title based on its relevancy and provides an opportunity for discussion directly with him. It’s an opportunity for students to learn how to express their thoughts cohesively and receive critical feedback from a senior executive.
Philanthropic Outreach:
A central part of the program, interns participate in several of ClearVision’s philanthropic events. Exposing interns to the importance of giving back on a corporate level encourages commitment and responsibility from both a business and personal perspective.
Interns work closely with the Marketing department to create videos used to educate students and potential interns about the intern program. In 2018, the summer intern team gave us an inside look at what makes each of them unique.
Previous videos have included a behind the scenes look at their experiences and how the intern program has been beneficial to them. The videos include parodies and lip synching which capture the FUN that we incorporate into our program.
ClearVision has been widely-recognized for its internship program and has received countless accolades, including a feature in Newsday, recognition by One Day, One Job, and receipt of Dowling College’s Internship Program “Employer of the Semester” award.
