It helped me be so much better prepared entering the job market.” I got work experience - in the governor's office! - learned to use technology, and learned about office work. “I know it's hard to get a job right out of college, so the internships MCB arranged were important to me. They just needed an opportunity and to find the right fit. “Success for our interns means they're out there, they're working, learning, producing - they're in the community. So even though it wasn't a good fit, it was so helpful to learn that before committing my life to that goal.” On the job, I found out reading instruments and such would be far more difficult than I knew. So MCB arranged an internship at Blue Hills Observatory. “I was at one point interested in meteorology. We work closely with employers' IT teams to ensure everything works for the person and won't strain their resources.” Our technology teams are out ahead of them, making sure they have the tools (readers, magnifiers, etc.) they need. We work on orientation and mobility training to assist them in adapting to their new workspaces. “Our work doesn't stop when clients are hired. And they stay with it, constant communication even after they start MCB wants the relationship to thrive, for us and for the person.” It's a partnership, and they're very thoughtful and diligent about placing people they're very practical and careful about putting people forward. “MCB really gets to know your company, your culture, and their clients. The people they matched us with were prepared and well-suited for the work.”Ĭolleen Moran, Employer, Spaulding Rehabilitation
We have a business to run, and MCB understood that. They met our managers, and they spent the time in our office to gauge what the demands would be. “MCB really went the extra step to determine what we really needed as an employer. Eventually, I found an internship in social work, actually at MCB, and it clicked: this is what I want to do.” The first ones weren't quite right, but doing the job helped me find things I did like. They worked with me to get stronger and confident that I really could do a job.

“MCB really helped me understand what was expected of professional people. It's enticing because these are paid positions - MCB actually picks up that cost for the employer - and they get real, practical experience.” Sometimes we even recommend it for people looking to fill gaps in their resume, getting back into work after time away. “We really recommend college kids and beyond consider internships. It was a huge help because I knew what to expect in the interview and prepared for it.” I had an interest, but they really helped me with interview training, my resume - lots of prep work to make the interviewing part feel more natural. “I asked MCB about internships right after my first year at college. We really considered candidates differently, looking at their individual skills more so than their disability.”
There's a misconception that blind people can only do a small set of jobs. “As an employer, we work closely with MCB to place people in jobs. They were important in helping me determine what I wanted to do with my life - and also what I didn't.” “I tried different internships that MCB arranged they really encouraged career exploration and experimentation. We really work with clients to understand and level-set their goals, then work hard to match them with an employer or opportunity.” We start with resumes, interview skills, technology, tools - the basics.
