How to Turn Your Internship into a Full-Time Job_.pptxHirect
Internships are a method for students to gain experience and knowledge about a particular career sector. It also serves as an approach for companies to test out potential employees. Many organizations use internship programs as a proving platform for the recruiting process. This helps to save them money on hiring by allowing possible new workers to try out before extending a formal job offer.
Going online is only step one. Next, your institution is challenged with growing online programs to attract new students. Learn how personalization can power the three critical steps in the student lifecycle: recruitment & enrollment, teaching & learning, and outcomes & retention.
