ROCS Recruiting Roundtable Webinar: The Internship, Understanding the Nature of Work

The internship has become a tremendous opportunity for individuals to learn about themselves in the work environment and, for employers, a means to cultivate new talent. However, the internship is oftentimes ill-defined for all parties due to a lack of understanding of how to make the most of the opportunity. Once fully grasped, participants will better understand how to optimize internship opportunities for everyone in the process and leverage their learnings for greater work successes.

What Will Be Covered

  • Lessons learned from countless exchanges with intern and employer
  • Challenges facing employers and interns in maximizing mutual benefit
  • Tips to help you turn an internship program into a quality talent pipeline
