Early Careers

The best summer job a girl could ask for...I couldn’t have done this without the help of my amazing coaches every week. You are all rockstars and I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did. A huge shoutout to everyone in kitchen who helped make this possible. I know the kids DEFINITELY appreciated you all. The food was always ready on time and prepared to perfection. Thank you all so so much! Thank you to Greg, Nick, Anthony, and Dominic for allowing me to come back and do this again. I first did summer academy back in 2019 and loved it so much so I knew, if given the opportunity, I would have loved to come back. Clocking out for the last time today was so bittersweet, but I am so grateful for the opportunity to teach kids about golf and hopefully jump start their love and passion for the game.

The internship was not about printing papers, organizing paperwork, running errands for my boss, or the typical intern experience you see in movies. It was the exact opposite! From the very first day I started at my internship, they put trust in me to handle their Focus and Aloha POS systems. I got to receive back-end technical experience to become more well-rounded in the POS systems. Even as an intern I got leadership experience! Through this experience I slowly learned that Topgolf is not just a company but a family. I am beyond grateful for every minute I got working as an intern at Topgolf. I want to give a big thank you to Andrew, Scott, Amy, Frank, and my HAT team for investing your time in me and supporting me in every step of the way. I hope I can return those blessings by working hard to contribute to the success of Topgolf's future. You guys truly created a “moment that matters” for me!

I had the pleasure of joining Topgolf as a Data Engineer Intern. From the start, I was able to experience the one-of-a-kind culture Topgolf has. Topgolf’s core values are fun, caring, courage, one team, and excellence. These core values are exhibited throughout all their business practices. I feel extremely fortunate to have been given this opportunity. Outside of my technical experience, I was able to also experience fun (one of our core values!) in the workplace. With various events, it is hard to ever stay bored. Under the wonderful guidance of Rakesh and Jesse, I was able to have an internship that was challenging, rewarding, and inspiring. I would also like to thank Andrew, Amy, everyone on the Business Intelligence team, and my fellow interns for contributing to my experience. I am looking forward to achieving more at Topgolf!

After being a part of the wonderful risk management team at Topgolf, I now have a much better understanding of how corporate risk management works and the many factors and roles that go into it. This experience has given me a better idea of what I want to do and specific roles that would fit me in the future. Another important aspect of this internship was the culture and core values that Topgolf had. It made me realize how important the culture of a company is and how important it can be to liking your job. Above all, Topgolf has taught me the importance of having risk management department in your business due to the number of risks and incidents that can happen. It is important to try and keep people safe while also allowing them to have fun and there is a fine line that you must navigate to achieve that. Topgolf was the perfect internship experience due to the sheer number of risks associated with the business and how we would navigate them as a company. After finally experiencing an internship related to my field, I feel much more confident about the job market for when I graduate.
