Empowering the Next Generation of Professionals Through Local Partnerships
Omar Abou-Harb, a driven college student from Orange County, CA and project manager for NASA's NCAS program, has taken the entrepreneurial plunge by founding OC Interns [https://ocinterns.com/], a company dedicated to helping students gain work experience by connecting them with local businesses. This innovative initiative not only provides valuable work experience for students but also enhances the online presence of participating businesses by building their websites, taking professional photos of their work, and redesigning their logos, ultimately strengthening the local economy.

Understanding the Challenge

While working at his school's career center, Omar witnessed firsthand the struggles faced by his classmates in securing internships. Many students lacked the necessary resources and connections to land meaningful positions. This realization ignited Omar's desire to create a solution that addresses these challenges while benefiting local companies in search of fresh talent.

Revamping the Career Center

Omar's journey began with a significant overhaul of the career center itself. By redesigning their website and implementing strategic marketing initiatives, he increased student engagement and participation, increasing awareness of the center's offerings and further solidifying his conviction to launch OC Interns [https://ocinterns.com/].

Building Connections

From the outset, Omar pitched his vision to over 1,000 students within the first week of operations, underscoring the importance of hands-on learning in today's competitive job market. Initially managing local outreach alone, he quickly recognized the need for a larger team. Now, with a dedicated group of 32 individuals, he facilitates connections between students and local businesses, empowering students to enhance their resumes, develop critical skills, and build confidence as they prepare to enter the workforce.

Enhancing Digital Presence for Local Businesses

Beyond supporting students, OC Interns [https://ocinterns.com/] is committed to helping local businesses bolster their online visibility. By providing comprehensive website development, Omar ensures that these businesses effectively reach their target audiences. This dual approach not only enriches the student experience but also contributes to the vitality of the local economy.

A Journey of Expansion

With a growing team, Omar is expanding his company's reach and collaborating with a diverse range of local businesses eager to enhance their operations. The increasing demand for skilled interns and effective online strategies is reflected in his expanding client base, showcasing the positive impact of his entrepreneurial vision.

A Vision for the Future

Looking ahead, Omar remains steadfast in his commitment to empowering students and supporting local businesses. He believes that the key to success lies in continuous improvement and embracing risk, stating, "This experience is a stepping stone toward my goals, allowing me to refine my skills while making a meaningful impact on my community." Omar's insights reveal a deep dedication to fostering an environment where both students and businesses can thrive together.
