Messina College has partnered with Commonwealth Financial Network—a Waltham-based financial services firm—to offer 10 paid internships for its second-year students. Commonwealth CEO Wayne Bloom and his wife, Veronica Bloom, are Boston College parents and former co-chairs of the Parents Leadership Council. “We want these interns to leave feeling they were never treated as ‘just students,’” Bloom said in the release. Many Messina students already have work experience, so the goal of their internships is to find a career that speaks to them while gaining experience working in a corporate setting, he added. Berrelleza thanked the leaders who partnered with Messina to launch the internships, emphasizing how their commitment to the program has encouraged other organizations to partner with Messina.
