Mr. Gibson stated “We are very excited to welcome Ava, Owen, and Zarib as our 2023 summer interns. Our summer internship program is an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the Banking Industry and build relationships. Ava and Zarib joined us last year, and will be interning in different departments this year to round-out their experience. Historically, our internship program has focused on back-office positions, but this year we expanded it to include our Branch network. We look forward to working with Ava, Owen, and Zarib over the summer, and are hoping they will find the experience educational and rewarding.”
