Interns

If they aren't getting us coffee and typing stuff to protect our fingers from undue stress, what are we supposed to do with them? This year we are going to teach them about business, well, our business. We might give them a review, so they can enjoy the same feedback anxiety we instill in all employees. At the end, we will give them a project and presentation to make them feel like work will be similar to school. It also creates the illusion that they will bump elbows with executives and do cool presentations, if they come work for us after college. We even pay them to sample our workspace and judge it for future use. This is an awesome racquet and I missed it to work as a manager at McDonald's. There are some rewarding parts to sponsoring interns and seeing them learn and grow. Have any of you been an intern or have you put together an intern program? Share your experiences and tips. I could use the help to make an internship program that actually retains the candidates at the end of the program, since they get a full year for other companies to turn their heads.
