Taking your first job is a big decision and the company you choose can have a powerful impact on your career. Perficient’s success is built upon the success of our people, one fact that is never forgotten.
Here, a few of our colleagues share about their recent experience in the Campus Program and how it helped them find success.
Overcome First-Day on the Job Nerves
Campus Program attendees collaborate on a wide variety of projects and dive deeper into technology solutions before deploying to a client.
Micheal G., associate technical consultant at Perficient
“Everyone was very informative in what Perficient expects and how to improve ourselves as employees. Programs like this help, mainly because most new employees are nervous, and it helps to break the ice and make them feel more comfortable.” Michael G., associate technical consultant
“I enjoyed being surrounded (virtually of course) by people who are in the same shoes. It makes the whole thing a little less overwhelming.” JeanPaul A., associate technical consultant
Launch Your Career with a Built-in Support System
“I think it’s important to show up for your new employees by setting up the support system from the start. On the first day, I was overwhelmed by all the resources and support from everyone we talked to. Everyone always encouraged us to reach out and ask questions which demonstrated what makes Perficient’s company culture so great.” Gabby T., associate business consultant

Enjoy Community with Other Campus Program Attendees
“My favorite part of the Campus Programs is that we were constantly connecting with our peers.

All of us coming together and interacting was fun because I didn’t feel misguided or alone.” Gabby T., associate business consultant
