General Information
Nex-Tech was originally started because farmers wanted a way to be able to communicate with eachother even out in rural areas. After enough farmers put their money together Rural Telephone was started, fast forward to today and we have Nex-Tech, the greatest internet service and technology company in northwest Kansas.
Why I’m Interested
I am interested in Nex-Tech because it is very involved in the community and is driven to give customers the best experience that they possibly can regardless of how many services they have and how much money they pay. The customer service team and technical support team are very easy to get in contact with and solve issues as quickly as possible.

Cerner

General Information
Cerner has been thriving for 40 years in the intersection of healthcare and information technology. They do everything from providing data to make smarter and more efficient decisions whether that be financially or not. Cerners mission is to transform the way that healthcare is delivered and that is something that I would love to be a part of.
Why I’m Interested
I think that Cerner would be a great place to work and gain a really good understanding of the healthcare systems and industry as a whole. In school I feel we are taught about networks and what not but I have not had any experience dealing with healthcare systems and think it would be very beneficial and interesting to learn.

Vyve Broadband
Address: 1007 West 27th Street, Hays, KS 67601

Contact: Phil Spencer
General Information
Vyve Broadband is an internet service provider that is actively working to speed up the way its customers live and experience technology services. Vyve Broadband has strong ties to the community and was formerly known as Eagle Communications which is another household name around the community. I think it would be great to help make Vyve a household name around the community as well.
Why I’m Interested
Vyve Broadband is relatively new to the technology services and internet service providing industry in this service area. Many members of the community still refer to them as Eagle which I think can prove difficultness in word of mouth advertising. However, I believe that over time with the right team they can work to be one of the most competitive businesses in the industry and that would be a good team to be a part of.

General Information
Verizon is one the leading cell phone providers in the world. Verizon is dedicated and committed to inspiring change in things that are happening around the world and not solely focused on the tech and cell phone industry. While they are very focused on providing the fastest and most reliable cell phone network possible they are also very focused on topics such as education, social and racial justice and economic change.
Why I’m Interested
I am interested in Verizon for many reasons, everything they stand for are things that would make me proud to be associated with the team. It impresses me how much they are able to focus on, I think it would be a great experience and wonderful environment to work in. I would also love to see how one of the largest cell phone providers operate on a day to day basis and how things are coordinated to all the other departments and still effectient.
