Do you have any advice on how a high schooler can get more involved in the telecom/tech industry?
Anonymous asked a question to Linda K.
Hello Nokia, I am a 11th grader passionate about the telecom industry (cellular/5g engineering) and overall tech. Most companies only offer programs for students in college so I am finding it difficult to gain more experience in my interest. Do you know of any programs in the US for my age group?

It’s great to see your passion for the telecom industry at such a young age. While there aren’t any specific high school programs in the US right now (though there are some in Canada, and that could change), you can still get involved. Look into local school or state programs that offer internships or work placements for high schoolers, as some schools may provide insurance for these opportunities. You could also reach out to companies for volunteer roles, participate in hackathons where telecom companies are involved, or take online courses to build your skills and experience. Best of luck!
