“The Rising Stars Conference is a  great opportunity for any young engineer. At this conference, I had a chance to network with a lot of great engineers, both present and future. Talking to all these great engineers allowed me the opportunity to work at Northrop Grumman for a summer internship. Due to that internship, I have a job offer before I even graduate! For any young engineer thinking of attending , I would give them a resounding “Do It!”. I can guarantee that you won’t regret it. ” – Joe Fercho, 2015 Attendee
