The Guidebook To Securing High Profile Internships: A Step-by-Step Guide to Navigating Corporate America Early in Your Career

There are thousands of books out there that talk about how to climb the corporate ladder and
hundreds more that talk about ways to make it to the top. However, there are little to no books that
talk about the ins and outs of starting a career such as navigating uncertainty, securing
internships, networking, battling with imposter syndrome, pivoting careers entirely and many
other gems that get lost in exaggerated stories on people far removed from you.
This book is not fiction or click-bait. It is a real story about my life and how I got started off in my
career, while literally starting from scratch with no industry connections. By making a plan,
taking a few leaps of faith, trying something new, and being my authentic self, I was able to go
from stocking shelves at a local grocery store to securing 7 internships including Facebook and Google internships both in the US
and abroad doing what I love the most. As CEO of Dalvin Digital Design and a full-time Software
Engineer, I, Dalvin Sejour will go through a step-by-step guide to replicate my early career
success through my riveting, real and informational narrative.

After graduating from high school, it seems like the world has an unrealistic expectation that
you need to have everything figured out by the time you throw your cap in the air at graduation.
Whether you are deciding to go to college, went straight into the workforce, graduated, or have
started work and looking to pivot careers this easy-to-follow guide through my lenses has
something to offer you.

“The Guidebook to Securing High Profile Internships” is an instructive playbook that can help address the growing issue of college graduates being underemployed. Dalvin Josias Sejour shares intimate details of his college journey allowing the reader to learn strategy that can lead to post-college success.
I witnessed Dalvin’s drive and grit firsthand. I am the EOF Director who accepted Dalvin into college and I can honestly share that he is one of the most accomplished scholars in the history of our program. Dalvin joined my EOF program during the summer of 2014 and he has been impressive from day one. The EOF Program, of which Dalvin is a scholar at Montclair State University, is designed for low-income highly motivated New Jersey residents and Dalvin took full advantage of our college access program and has changed the course of poverty for his family by maximizing his educational opportunities in and outside of the classroom.
Our background has many parallels. We are both of Haitian descent, both went to urban high schools in New Jersey and both recognize that education is the key to reaching all our personal and professional goals. This guidebook is truly the play by play strategy he used to enhance his college experience and allowed him to truly benefit from his investment. The book is written in a conversational tone and is an easy read for those young scholars who need to identify their passion and or map out a plan of action to achieve all of their personal and professional goals.
