It's no surprise they're hard to find.

Last year I hired a FIRST student for Summer Internship and he is still working for us.
This year I hired another FIRST student for Summer Internship and I planning to keep him on as a full-time intern.
FIRST students make really great interns and employees.
We now look for the candidate involved with FIRST as a benchmark for internship.
