Guidewire is offering an internship program for the summer of 2012.  The program is designed to give active college students an opportunity to work in a real-world business environment, writing software that people use to make a living.  Our customers are insurance companies, and insurance software is surprisingly complex, difficult to get right, and actually a lot of fun to work on.

If you want to write software this summer, we would like to hear from you.
