Extern.com Reviews 

I had a great experience with the Extern platform! The Leap externship gave me the chance to work on a real-world marketing campaign—from influencer research to creating content and pitching a full strategy. I appreciated the clear guidance, creative freedom, and focus on Gen Z audiences. It was a great way to build my portfolio and feel more confident about stepping into a marketing role. Highly recommend for students or early-career professionals looking for hands-on learning!

I applied for several externships through the website, and was able to see what stage in the review process I was in, which I thought was very transparent. However, I didn’t move past “under review” for a while, even months after the externship was supposed to start. I got an email even a month after that with a rejection notice. I understand the selectivity, but I was also told at several points along the application process, and in their media and newsletter, that the company prides itself on timely and accurate communication. It’s disheartening to see then, that they essentially ghosted me for months and then sent me an email after the externship had already started.

My experience was great because I had the opportunity to independently research and analyze consumer sentiment, which enhanced my data analysis and marketing skills. The company provided a supportive environment with helpful feedback, allowing me to apply what I learned in real-world scenarios. Their focus on understanding Gen Z consumer behavior and brand positioning was insightful and aligned with current industry trends.

This project was great and I will use the skills that I have learned in my future endeavors. Extern did a great job making all the "modules" easy to understand and work through.

Extern's student platform was easy to navigate and offered a great deal of information. I was able to take in topics easily due to there being visuals, text, and videos used throughout each week to cover every topic and walk through project intentions. The project managers has some missteps in communication when it came to meetings but when meetings did happen they answered questions and covered important information. Meeting with employees from Beats was an incredible opportunity. I enjoyed learning from them as well. If given the opportunity I would do another Externship.

A Truly Enriching Externship Experience

My externship with Webacy and Extern has been an incredible learning journey.
