Hi Spencer - that is one of the big benefits of Nokia. We are a global company with countless intertwined teams with diverse representation across the globe!

Hi Spencer, in most internships you’ll be exposed to various areas of our development and delivery process. What are your interests? Can you name a few?

02 March, 2021 22:20

My main focus with my degree has been in Power and Electromagnetics. I've focused mainly on circuit design, antennas, and coding. Recently I've been learning Machine Learning using a Physically Informed Neural Network to predict and optimize Yagi Antennas for my group's senior design project. I'm curious if Nokia uses machine learning for any of their projects to know if it's a useful skill.

Thank you! I'll take a look into those positions as well. Since internships are virtual, is there an issue with being out of state for some of these positions. I recall that the position in Dallas preferred local candidates.

No there is no issue with being out to state. All our 2021 internships are virtual opportunities.

Hi Spencer - because Nokia is a company of nearly 100K employees, there are always great opportunities available. I work in Learning and Development (NokiaEDU) and have performed several different roles there during my career with Nokia.
