How it started
We gathered over 353 interns all over the world across different tech tracks (design, mobile, frontend, backend development, video editing and more) in a single digital space for eight weeks to hone their skills
Oh! and Mentors too!

“Participating in HNG i2reshaped our approach to coding and collaboration,
On March 15, 2015, the countdown began with 353 interns flooding the digital corridors of HNG i2! Among them were 50 design mavens, 10 code warriors, and a whole squad of tech enthusiasts itching to level up their skills.
Breaking the mold from past cohorts, this time around, project managers stepped up as mentors, guiding the collective force towards one epic goal.
Talk about unexpected MVPs! The spotlight definitely belonged to the video editors. They didn't just edit, they infused magic into every frame, turning ordinary clips into cinematic masterpieces.
And that's a wrap, folks! As the curtain fell on the HNG i2 Cohort, we bid farewell with 24 design dynamos, 50 coding connoisseurs, and a bunch of other tech-savvy superheroes

My HNG experience was a game changer. What I gained in few weeks of the internship is more than I could in months of learning. And the experience I’ve gotten from here became a springboard for my career.
Dev Hendrix
I was in HNG X but as a backend intern but I left early and returned in HNG11 as a DevOps intern, but again, I left earl. In HNG12, I came back as a Product Testing intern, determined to see it through this time and I did!.

Started with a simple task, ended up building pipelines and shipping code with strangers who became teammates. HNG threw me into real DevOps work — and I came out sharper, faster, and more confident.
